United States v. Ralph Thompson
United States v. Ralph Thompson
Opinion
United States Court of Appeals FOR THE EIGHTH CIRCUIT ___________ No. 99-2963 ___________ United States of America, * * Appellee, * * Appeal from the United States v. * District Court for the * Eastern District of Arkansas.
Ralph Thompson, also known as * Travell L. Glover, also known as * [UNPUBLISHED] Fabias L. Shipman, * * Appellant. * ___________ Submitted: June 9, 2000 Filed: July 20, 2000 ___________ Before McMILLIAN, BRIGHT, and MURPHY, Circuit Judges. ___________ PER CURIAM.
Pursuant to a written plea agreement, Ralph Thompson pleaded guilty to possessing with intent to distribute cocaine, in violation of 21 U.S.C. § 841(a)(1).
Following imposition of sentence, appointed counsel moved to withdraw and filed a brief under Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738 (1967). Upon review of the record and the parties& briefs, we agree with the government that the district court&s failure at the change-of-plea hearing to advise Thompson of the correct statutory mandatory minimum sentence for his offense, and of the applicability and effect of the period of supervised release he faced, was harmless error. See Fed. R. Crim. P. 11(c)(1), (h); United States v. Prado, 204 F.3d 843, 846 (8th Cir. 2000); United States v. McCarthy, 97 F.3d 1562, 1575 (8th Cir. 1996), cert. denied, 519 U.S. 1130, and 520 U.S. 1133 (1997); United States v. Osment, 13 F.3d 1240, 1242-43 (8th Cir. 1994).
Having reviewed the record, we conclude that no other non-frivolous issues exist. See Penson v. Ohio, 488 U.S. 75, 80 (1988).
Accordingly, we affirm the judgment of the district court, and we grant counsel&s motion to withdraw.
