MEMORANDUM **

Maria Esther Figueroa-Salinas appeals from the district court’s judgment and challenges her guilty-plea conviction and 40-month sentence for reentry after deportation, in violation of 8 U.S.C. § 1326. Pursuant to Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738, 87 S.Ct. 1396, 18 L.Ed.2d 493 (1967), Figueroa-Salinas’s counsel has filed a brief stating that there are no grounds for relief, along with a motion to withdraw as counsel of record. We have provided Figueroa-Salinas the opportunity to file a pro se supplemental brief. No pro se supplemental brief or answering brief has been filed.

Our independent review of the record pursuant to Penson v. Ohio, 488 U.S. 75, 80, 109 S.Ct. 346, 102 L.Ed.2d 300 (1988), discloses no arguable grounds for relief on direct appeal.

Counsel’s motion to withdraw is GRANTED.

The court is in receipt of Figueroa-Salinas’s letter dated May 30, 2013. Insofar as the letter can be construed as a motion for substitute counsel, that motion is denied.

AFFIRMED.
