                    Appeal from the United States District Court
                             for the District of Arizona
                     David S. Doty, District Judge, Presiding **

                           Submitted February 11, 2013 ***

Before:        FERNANDEZ, TASHIMA, and WARDLAW, Circuit Judges.

             The Honorable David S. Doty, United States District Judge for the
District of Minnesota, sitting by designation.
          **
             The panel unanimously concludes this case is suitable for decision
without oral argument. See Fed. R. App. P. 34(a)(2).
deportation, in violation of 8 U.S.C. § 1326. Pursuant to Anders v. California, 386

U.S. 738 (1967), Delgado-Ornelas’s counsel has filed a brief stating that there are

no grounds for relief, along with a motion to withdraw as counsel of record.

Delgado-Ornelas has filed a pro se supplemental brief. No answering brief has

been filed.

      Delgado-Ornelas has waived his right to appeal his conviction and sentence.

Our independent review of the record pursuant to Penson v. Ohio, 488 U.S. 75, 80

(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 grant the

government’s motion to dismiss the appeal. See id. at 988.

      Counsel’s motion to withdraw is GRANTED.

      Delgado-Ornelas’s motion for leave to file a request for an extension of time

and request for extension of time are denied as moot, as Delgado-Ornelas’s pro se

brief was received and filed within the time granted by the court.

      DISMISSED.
