Opinion:
MEMORANDUM
Armen Bakunts appeals his conviction and 8-month sentence after his guilty plea to two counts of bank fraud in violation of 18 U.S.C. § 1344. His attorney has filed a brief pursuant to Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738, 87 S.Ct. 1396, 18 L.Ed.2d 493 (1967), and a motion to withdraw as counsel of record. Our independent review of the record pursuant to Penson v. Ohio, 488 U.S. 75, 109 S.Ct. 346, 102 L.Ed.2d 300 (1988), discloses no issue for appeal.
Accordingly, we GRANT the motion to withdraw as counsel of record for appellant and the district court's judgment is
AFFIRMED.
