Before:        FARRIS, LEAVY, and BYBEE, Circuit Judges.

       Jorge Alberto Perez-Luna appeals from his guilty-plea conviction and 21-

month sentence for reentry of removed alien, in violation of 8 U.S.C. § 1326(a).

Pursuant to Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738 (1967), Perez-Luna’s counsel has

filed a brief stating there are no grounds for relief, along with a motion to withdraw

as counsel of record. We have provided the appellant with the opportunity to file a

pro se supplemental brief. No pro se supplemental brief or answering brief have

been filed.

      Our independent review of the record pursuant to Penson v. Ohio, 488 U.S.

75, 80-81 (1988), discloses no arguable grounds for relief on direct appeal.

      Accordingly, counsel’s motion to withdraw is GRANTED, and the district

court’s judgment is AFFIRMED.
