Yang Wang appeals his guilty-plea conviction and 57-month sentence imposed for distribution and possession with intent to distribute a controlled substance, in violation of 21 U.S.C. §§ 841(a)(1) and (b)(1)(C).
Pursuant to Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738, 87 S.Ct. 1396, 18 L.Ed.2d 493 (1967), counsel for Wang has filed a brief and a motion to withdraw as counsel of record, stating there are no grounds for relief. No pro se supplemental brief has been filed.
We have conducted an independent review of the record pursuant to Penson v. Ohio, 488 U.S. 75, 83, 109 S.Ct. 346, 102 L.Ed.2d 300 (1988). We affirm the conviction. We remand the sentence for further proceedings consistent with United States v. Ameline, 409 F.3d 1073, 1084-85 (9th Cir.2005) (en banc).
Counsel’s motion to withdraw as counsel on appeal is denied.
The conviction is AFFIRMED, and the sentence is REMANDED.
