   MEMORANDUM

Berlain Galvez-Lopez appeals from the district court’s judgment and challenges his jury-trial conviction and 60-month sentence for three counts of bringing in an illegal alien for profit, in violation of 8 U.S.C. § 1324(a)(2)(B)(ii). Pursuant to Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738, 87 S.Ct. 1396, 18 L.Ed.2d 493 (1967), Galvez-Lopez’s counsel has filed a brief stating that there are no grounds for relief, along with a motion to withdraw as counsel of record. Galvez-Lopez has filed a pro se supplemental brief. No answering brief has been filed.

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.
