MEMORANDUM**

2
John Bernette Tydingco appeals his conviction and 188-month sentence following a guilty plea to importing methamphetamine in violation of 21 U.S.C. §§ 952(a) and 960, and possession with intent to distribute methamphetamine in violation of 21 U.S.C. § 841(a)(1).  Pursuant to Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738 (1967), Tydingco's counsel filed a brief stating that he finds no meritorious issues for review, and a motion to withdraw as counsel of record.  Our independent review of the record pursuant to Penson v. Ohio, 488 U.S. 75, 83 (1988), discloses no issue for review.  Accordingly, the motion of counsel to withdraw is GRANTED and the district court's judgment is AFFIRMED.

*
 The panel unanimously finds this case suitable for decision without oral argument.  Fed.R.App.P. 34(a);  9th Cir.R. 34-4.  Tydingco's request for the appointment of new counsel is denied
