United States v. Palma-Martinez

U.S. Court of Appeals for the Eighth Circuit
United States v. Palma-Martinez, 3 F. App'x 573 (8th Cir. 2001)

United States v. Palma-Martinez

Opinion

PER CURIAM.

Armando Palma-Martinez pleaded guilty to transporting illegal aliens for commercial advantage and private financial gain. On appeal from the sentence of imprisonment and supervised release imposed by the district court, * Palma-Martinez’s counsel filed a brief contending the district court imposed an overly harsh sentence and moved to withdraw under Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738, 87 S.Ct. 1396, 18 L.Ed.2d 493 (1967). Palma-Martinez raises several additional arguments in his pro se supplemental brief. Having considered the briefs filed by counsel and Palma-Martinez and the record, we find no nonfrivolous issues for appeal. See Penson v. Ohio, 488 U.S. 75, 80, 109 S.Ct. 346, 102 L.Ed.2d 300 (1988); Anders, 386 U.S. at 744. We thus affirm the judgment of the district court and grant counsel’s motion to withdraw.

*

The Honorable Lyle E. Strom, United States District Judge for the District of Nebraska.
