UNITED STATES of America, Plaintiff-Appellee, v. Carlos GOMEZ-ROBLES, Defendant-Appellant.
MEMORANDUM **
In these consolidated appeals, Carlos Gomez-Robles appeals his guilty-plea conviction and 57-month sentence for reentry of a removed alien, in violation of 8 U.S.C. § 1326, and the revocation of supervised release and partially consecutive 21-month sentence imposed upon revocation. Pursuant to Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738, 87 S.Ct. 1396, 18 L.Ed.2d 493 (1967), Gomez-Robles’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 Gomez-Robles the opportunity to file a pro se supplemental brief. No pro se supplemental brief or answering brief has been filed.
Gomez-Robles waived his right to appeal his conviction, the revocation of supervised release, and his sentences. 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 waivers. See United States v. Watson, 582 F.3d 974, 986-88 (9th Cir. 2009). We accordingly dismiss these appeals. See id. at 988.
Appellee’s motion for leave to file its late letter is GRANTED.
Counsel’s motion to withdraw is GRANTED.
DISMISSED.
