MEMORANDUM **

Virjinio Reynoso-Garcia appeals from the district court’s judgment and challenges his guilty-plea conviction and 18-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), Reynoso-Garcia’s counsel has filed a brief stating that there are no grounds for re *500 lief, along with a motion to withdraw as counsel of record. We have provided Rey-noso-Gareia the opportunity to file a pro se supplemental brief. No pro se supple-. mental brief or answering brief has been filed.

Reynoso-Garcia has waived his right to appeal his conviction and sentence. Our independent review of the record pursuant to Penson v. Ohio, 488 U.S. 75, 80, 109 S.Ct. 846, 102 L.Ed.2d 300 (1988), discloses no arguable issue as to the validity of the waiver. See United States v. Watson, 582 F.3d 974, 986-88 (9th Cir. 2009). We accordingly dismiss the appeal. See id. at 988.

Counsel’s motion to withdraw is GRANTED.

DISMISSED.
