United States v. Anthony Jasso

Opinion

MEMORANDUM **

Anthony Jasso appeals from the district court’s judgment and challenges his guilty-plea conviction and sentence for conspiring to advertise child pornography, in violation of 18 U.S.C. §§ 2251(d)(1), (e); 2252A(a), (b)(1), (b)(2). Pursuant to Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738, 87 S.Ct. 1396, 18 L.Ed.2d 493 (1967), Jasso’s counsel has filed a brief stating that there are no meritorious, non-frivolous grounds for relief, along with a motion to withdraw as counsel of record. We have afforded Jasso an 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 with respect to the conviction. We therefore affirm the conviction.

Jasso waived his right to appeal his sentence. Our independent review of the record pursuant to Penson, 488 U.S. at 80, 109 S.Ct. 346, discloses no arguable issues as to the validity of the waiver. United States v. Watson, 582 F.3d 974, 986-88 (9th Cir. 2009). We accordingly dismiss the appeal of Jasso’s sentence. Id. at 988.

Counsel’s motion to withdraw is GRANTED.

DISMISSED in part; AFFIRMED in part.
