UNITED STATES of America, Plaintiff-Appellee, v. Debra Lynn LOWE, Defendant-Appellant.
    No. 00-30077.
    United States Court of Appeals, Ninth Circuit.
    Submitted Jan. 8, 2001.
    Decided Jan. 24, 2001.
    Before BEEZER, O’SCANNLAIN and KLEINFELD, Circuit Judges.
    
      
      . The panel unanimously finds this case suitable for decision without oral argument. See Fed. R.App. P. 34(a)(2).
    
   MEMORANDUM

Debra Lynn Lowe appeals the district court’s judgment revoking her supervised release, and the resulting imposition of a nine-month sentence. Pursuant to Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738, 87 S.Ct. 1396, 18 L.Ed.2d 493 (1967), Lowe’s counsel has filed a brief stating that she finds no meritorious issues for review and a motion to withdraw as counsel of record. Lowe has not filed a pro se supplemental brief. We dismiss the appeal.

When Lowe completed her sentence upon revocation of supervised release, there ceased to be a case or controversy. See United States v. Palomba, 182 F.3d 1121, 1123 & n. 3 (9th Cir.1999) (stating that a defendant lacks standing to challenge a completed sentence in the absence of a challenge to the underlying conviction). We therefore lack Article III jurisdiction to review Lowe’s appeal. See Spencer v. Kemna, 523 U.S. 1, 8-17, 118 S.Ct. 978, 140 L.Ed.2d 43 (1998); Palomba, 182 F.3d at 1123 & n. 3.

DISMISSED. 
      
      . This disposition is not appropriate for publication and may not be cited to or by the courts of this circuit except as may be provided by 9th Cir. R. 36-3.
     
      
      . Counsel’s motion to withdraw as counsel of record is GRANTED.
