United States v. Javier Ramos
Opinion
MEMORANDUM
Javier Reyes Ramos appeals from his guilty-plea conviction and 46-month sentence for being an illegal alien found in the United States following deportation, in violation of 8 U.S.C. § 1326 . Pursuant to Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738 , 87 S.Ct. 1396 , 18 L.Ed.2d 493 (1967), Ramos’s counsel has filed a brief stating there are no grounds for relief, along with a motion to withdraw as counsel of record. Ramos has filed pro se supplemental opening and reply briefs and the government has filed an answering brief.
Our independent review of the record pursuant to Penson v. Ohio, 488 U.S. 75, 80 , 109 S.Ct. 346 , 102 L.Ed.2d 300 (1988), discloses no arguable grounds for relief on direct appeal.
Counsel’s motion to withdraw is GRANTED.
AFFIRMED.
