Opinion:
Affirmed by unpublished PER CURIAM opinion.
Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.
PER CURIAM:
Pursuant to a written plea agreement, Mariana Simeonov was convicted of conspiracy to commit marriage fraud, 18 U.S.C. § 871 (2006), and was sentenced to fifteen months in prison. She now appeals. Her attorney has filed a brief pursuant to Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738, 87 S.Ct. 1396, 18 L.Ed.2d 493 (1967), questioning whether the district court complied with Fed.R.Crim.P. 11 but concluding that it did. Simeonov was advised of her right to file a pro se supplemental brief but did not file such a brief.
After reviewing the transcript of Simeo-nov's Rule 11 proceeding, we find that the district court fully complied with Rule 11. Further, after a thorough examination of the record in accordance with Anders, we find that there are no meritorious issues for appeal. Accordingly, we affirm.
This court requires counsel to inform his client, in writing, of her right to petition the Supreme Court of the United States for further review. If the client requests that a petition be filed, but counsel believes that such a petition would be frivolous, counsel may move in this court for leave to withdraw from representation. Counsel's motion must state that a copy of the motion was served on the client. We dispense with oral argument because the facts and legal contentions are adequately presented in the materials before the court and argument would not significantly aid the decisional process.
AFFIRMED.
