Opinion:
MEMORANDUM
Herbert Breckenridge Porter appeals from his guilty plea conviction and 180-month sentence imposed for attempted manufacturing of a controlled substance, in violation of 21 U.S.C. § 841(a)(1) and 846, and carrying a firearm during and in relation to a drug trafficking crime, in violation of 18 U.S.C. § 924(c)(1). Pursuant to Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738, 87 S.Ct. 1396, 18 L.Ed.2d 493 (1967), Porter's counsel has filed a brief stating that there are no arguable issues for review, and a motion to withdraw as counsel of record. Porter has not filed a pro se supplemental brief.
In the plea agreement, Porter waived his right to appeal the conviction and sentence. Having independently reviewed the record pursuant to Penson v. Ohio, 488 U.S. 75, 109 S.Ct. 346, 102 L.Ed.2d 300 (1988), we are satisfied that the plea agreement, including the waiver of the right to appeal, was entered knowingly and voluntarily. United States v. Aguilar-Muniz, 156 F.3d 974, 976 (9th Cir.1998). We therefore enforce the waiver, grant the motion to withdraw, and dismiss the appeal.
Counsel's motion to withdraw is GRANTED, and the appeal is DISMISSED.
