MEMORANDUM **

Franklyn Don Hammontree appeals from the district court’s judgment and challenges his guilty-plea conviction and 48-month sentence for distribution of methamphetamine, in violation of 21 U.S.C. § 841(a)(1). Pursuant to Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738, 87 S.Ct. 1396, 18 L.Ed.2d 493 (1967), Hammontree’s counsel has filed a brief stating that there are no grounds for relief, along with a motion to withdraw as counsel of record. Hammon-tree has filed a pro se supplemental brief. No 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 as to Hammontree’s conviction. We accordingly affirm Hammontree’s conviction.

Hammontree waived the right to appeal his sentence. Because the record discloses no arguable issue as to the validity of the sentencing waiver, we dismiss Hammon-tree’s appeal as to his sentence. See United States v. Watson, 582 F.3d 974, 986-88 (9th Cir. 2009).

Counsel’s motion to withdraw is GRANTED.

AFFIRMED in part; DISMISSED in part.
