MEMORANDUM **

Jack Benny Williams appeals his 18-month sentence imposed for selling counterfeit currency of the United States with intent to defraud, in violation of 18 U.S.C. § 478. Pursuant to Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738, 87 S.Ct. 1396, 18 L.Ed.2d 493 (1967), Williams’s counsel has filed a brief stating there are no grounds for relief, along with a motion to withdraw as counsel of record. We have provided Williams the opportunity to file a pro se supplemental brief. No pro se supplemental brief or answering brief has been filed.

Counsel’s motion to withdraw is GRANTED.

AFFIRMED.
