MEMORANDUM **

Ricardo Alberto Buelna appeals his guilty-plea conviction and 70-month sentence for illegal re-entry after deportation, in violation of 8 U.S.C. §§ 1326 (a) and (b)(2).

Pursuant to Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738 , 87 S.Ct. 1396 , 18 L.Ed.2d 493 (1967), counsel for Buelna has filed a brief stating there are no grounds for relief, and a motion to withdraw as counsel of record. Buelna has not filed a pro se supplemental brief.

Our independent review of the record pursuant to Penson v. Ohio, 488 U.S. 75, 83-84 , 109 S.Ct. 346 , 102 L.Ed.2d 300 (1988), discloses no grounds for relief. We therefore GRANT counsel’s motion to withdraw and AFFIRM the district court’s judgment.

AFFIRMED.
