                                                 MEMORANDUM *
LUIS HUMBERTO MAZARIEGOS-DE
LEON,

               Defendant - Appellant.



                    Appeal from the United States District Court
                             for the District of Arizona
                     Raner C. Collins, District Judge, Presiding

                             Submitted April 17, 2012 **

Before:        LEAVY, PAEZ, and BEA, Circuit Judges.

       Luis Mazariegos-De Leon appeals from his guilty-plea conviction and 30-

month sentence for reentry after deportation, in violation of 8 U.S.C. § 1326.

       Pursuant to Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738 (1967), Mazariegos-De


          *
             This disposition is not appropriate for publication and is not precedent
except as provided by 9th Cir. R. 36-3.
          **
             The panel unanimously concludes this case is suitable for decision
without oral argument. See Fed. R. App. P. 34(a)(2).
Leon’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 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.

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

court’s judgment is AFFIRMED.
