NOT FOR PUBLICATION FILED UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS JAN 19 2024 MOLLY C. DWYER, CLERK U.S. COURT OF APPEALS FOR THE NINTH CIRCUIT

UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, No. 22-30193

Plaintiff-Appellee, D.C. No. 1:18-cr-00112-SPW-1

v. MEMORANDUM* SHAWN MICHAEL BALL,

Defendant-Appellant.

Appeal from the United States District Court for the District of Montana Susan P. Watters, District Judge, Presiding

Submitted January 17, 2024**

Before: S.R. THOMAS, McKEOWN, and HURWITZ, Circuit Judges.

Shawn Michael Ball appeals from the district court’s judgment and

challenges the revocation of his supervised release and sentence of 6 months’

imprisonment and 54 months’ supervised release. Pursuant to Anders v.

California, 386 U.S. 738 (1967), Ball’s counsel has filed a brief stating that there

* This disposition is not appropriate for publication and is not precedent except as provided by Ninth Circuit Rule 36-3. ** The panel unanimously concludes this case is suitable for decision without oral argument. See Fed. R. App. P. 34(a)(2). are no grounds for relief, along with a motion to withdraw as counsel of record.

Ball 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 (1988), discloses no arguable grounds for relief on direct appeal. Ball’s pro

se arguments are unavailing. Any request to modify the conditions of supervised

release must be directed to the district court. See 18 U.S.C. § 3583(e)(2).

Counsel’s motion to withdraw is GRANTED.

AFFIRMED.
