MEMORANDUM
Jose Ruelas-Jimenez appeals his guilty-plea conviction and 44-month sentence for attempted illegal re-entry after deportation, in violation of 8 U.S.C. § 1326(a) and (b)(2).
Pursuant to Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738, 87 S.Ct. 1396, 18 L.Ed.2d 493 (1967), counsel for Ruelas-Jimenez has filed a brief stating there are no grounds for relief, and a motion to withdraw as counsel of record. No pro se supplemental brief has been filed. Our independent review of the record pursuant to Penson v. Ohio, 488 U.S. 75, 83-84, 109 S.Ct. 346, 102 L.Ed.2d 300 (1988), discloses no grounds for relief.
Accordingly, we GRANT counsel's motion to withdraw and AFFIRM the district court's judgment.
