Head Matter:
UNITED STATES of America, Appellee, v. Miguel Angel MIRANDA-MARTINEZ, Appellant.
No. 02-2497.
United States Court of Appeals, Eighth Circuit.
Submitted Dee. 3, 2002.
Decided Dec. 6, 2002.
Before WOLLMAN, FAGG, and MELLOY, Circuit Judges.

Opinion:
PER CURIAM.
A one-count indictment charged Miguel Angel Miranda-Martinez with being found in the United States without permission, following his conviction for aggravated felonies and his later deportation, in violation of 8 U.S.C. § 1326(a) and (b)(2). Miranda-Martinez pleaded guilty, and the district court sentenced him to 46 months imprisonment and three years supervised release.
On appeal, Miranda-Martinez's counsel filed a brief and moved to withdraw under Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738, 87 S.Ct. 1396, 18 L.Ed.2d 493 (1967). Upon careful review of the record, including Miranda-Martinez's post-sentencing letter to the district court, we conclude there are no nonfrivolous issues for appeal. See Penson v. Ohio, 488 U.S. 75, 109 S.Ct. 346, 102 L.Ed.2d 300 (1988). Accordingly, we affirm. We also grant counsel's motion to withdraw.
The Honorable Jimm Larry Hendren, Chief Judge, United States District Court for the Western District of Arkansas.
