UNITED STATES of America, Plaintiff-Appellee, v. Anabel OCEGUEDA, Defendant-Appellant, 540 F. App'x 787

MEMORANDUM Anabel Ocegueda appeals from the district court’s judgment and challenges her guilty-plea conviction and 168-month sentence for importation of methamphetamine, in violation of 21 U.S.C. §§ 952, 960. Pursuant to Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738, 87 S.Ct. 1396, 18 L.Ed.2d 493 (1967), Ocegueda’s counsel has filed a brief stating that there are no grounds for relief, along with a motion to withdraw as counsel of record. We have provided Oce-gueda the opportunity to file a pro se supplemental brief. No pro se supplemental brief or answering brief has been filed.

Ocegueda has waived her right to appeal her conviction and sentence. Our independent review of the record pursuant to Penson v. Ohio, 488 U.S. 75, 80, 109 S.Ct. 846, 102 L.Ed.2d 300 (1988), discloses no arguable issue as to the validity of the waiver. See United States v. Watson, 582 F.3d 974, 986-88 (9th Cir.2009). We accordingly dismiss the appeal. See id. at 988. Counsel’s motion to withdraw is GRANTED. DISMISSED. This disposition is not appropriate for publication and is not precedent except as provided by 9th Cir. R. 36-3.
