United States v. Kenneth Williams

Opinion

PER CURIAM.

Kenneth Williams appeals from the final judgment entered by the district court 1 upon his guilty plea to a felon-in-possession charge, in violation of 18 U.S.C. §§ 922(g)(1) and 924(e)(1). On appeal, his counsel has moved to withdraw and filed a brief under Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738, 87 S.Ct. 1396, 18 L.Ed.2d 493 (1967). Having reviewed the record independently under Penson v. Ohio, 488 U.S. 75, 109 S.Ct. 346, 102 L.Ed.2d 300 (1988), we agree with counsel that there are no non-frivolous issues for appeal, in view of the district court’s imposition of the statutory minimum sentence, to which Williams did not object. Accordingly, we affirm. We also grant counsel’s motion to withdraw.
