UNITED STATES v. TOELLE (2018)

MEMORANDUM **

Loren Michelle Toelle appeals from the district court’s judgment and challenges her guilty-plea convictions and concurrent 212-month sentences for conspiracy to distribute controlled substances, in violation of 21 U.S.C. §§ 841(a)(1), 846, and conspiracy to launder money, in violation of 18 U.S.C. § 1956(h). Pursuant to Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738, 87 S.Ct. 1396, 18 L.Ed.2d 493 (1967), Toelle’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 Toelle the opportunity to file a pro se supplemental brief. No pro se supplemental brief or answering brief has been filed.

Toelle 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. 346, 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.
