                    Appeal from the United States District Court
                              for the District of Idaho

       Rafael Madrigal appeals from: (1) his guilty-plea conviction and 130-month

sentence for illegal reentry, in violation of 8 U.S.C. § 1326(a); (2) his guilty-plea

             The panel unanimously concludes this case is suitable for decision
without oral argument. See Fed. R. App. P. 34(a)(2).
order of forfeiture under 26 U.S.C. § 5872 and 28 U.S.C. § 2461(c). Pursuant to

Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738 (1967), Madrigal’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. A supplemental brief and 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.
