Francisco Javier Manjarrez-Cardenas appeals from his guilty-plea conviction and 60-month sentence for conspiracy to commit money laundering, in violation of 18 U.S.C. § 1956 (a)(l)(A)(i), (h). Pursuant to Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738 , 87 S.Ct. 1396 , 18 L.Ed.2d 493 (1967), Manjar-rez-Cardenas’s counsel has filed a brief stating there are no grounds for relief, along with a motion to withdraw as counsel of record. We have provided Manjarrez-Cardenas the opportunity to file a pro se supplemental brief. No pro se supplemental brief or answering brief has been filed.
