MEMORANDUM **

Eduardo Manuel Marquez appeals from his guilty-plea conviction and 180-month sentence for possession of methamphetamine with intent to distribute, use or carrying of a firearm during a drug trafficking crime and being a felon in possession of a firearm, in violation of 21 U.S.C. § 841 (a)(1), 18 U.S.C. § 924 (a), and 18 U.S.C. § 922 (g)(1), respectively.

Pursuant to Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738 , 87 S.Ct. 1396 , 18 L.Ed.2d 493 (1967), counsel for Marquez has filed a brief stating that she finds no grounds for relief, along with a motion to withdraw as counsel of record. No pro se supplemental brief or answering brief has been filed.

This matter is REMANDED to the district court with directions to correct the judgment of conviction, so that any references to count numbers conform to the first superceding information. See Fed. R.Crim.P. 36.
