                     Marilyn L. Huff, District Judge, Presiding

Before:        SCHROEDER, THOMAS, and SILVERMAN, Circuit Judges.

       Lorenzo Garcia-Delgado appeals from his guilty-plea conviction and

30-month sentence for being a deported alien found in the United States, in

violation of 8 U.S.C. § 1326. Pursuant to Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738

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 has 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. We

dismiss in light of the valid appeal waiver. See United States v. Nguyen, 235 F.3d

1179, 1182 (9th Cir. 2000).

      Counsel’s motion to withdraw is GRANTED.

      DISMISSED.
