United States v. Walker
Opinion of the Court
ORDER
Tyree Walker cased a Wisconsin credit union and then led police on a high-speed chase through rush-hour traffic after his confederate robbed the institution at gunpoint and jumped into Walker’s waiting car. The two men made it ten miles before they were caught. Walker, who was on parole from a state conviction, pleaded guilty to bank robbery. See 18 U.S.C. § 2113(a). As a condition of his plea agreement he waived his right to appeal his conviction or a sentence of imprisonment of 151 months or less. In exchange the government agreed to a three-level reduction under U.S.S.G. § 3E1.1 for acceptance of responsibility and recommended a prison term within the guidelines range. The district court sentenced Walker to 151 months. The court ordered that term to run consecutively to the period of imprisonment later imposed when a state judge revoked Walker’s parole.
Walker filed a notice of appeal, but his appointed lawyer has concluded that the appeal is frivolous and seeks to withdraw. See Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738, 87 S.Ct. 1396, 18 L.Ed.2d 493 (1967). Walker opposes counsel’s motion. See CIR. R. 51(b). We limit our review to the potential issues identified in counsel’s facially adequate submission and in Walker’s response. See United States v. Schuh, 289 F.3d 968, 973-74 (7th Cir. 2002).
The motion to withdraw is GRANTED, and the appeal is DISMISSED.
