Opinion

NOT FOR PUBLICATION FILED UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS SEP 1 2026 MOLLY C. DWYER, CLERK U.S. COURT OF APPEALS FOR THE NINTH CIRCUIT UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, No. 25-7062 D.C. No. Plaintiff - Appellee, 9:24-cr-00062-DLC-1 v. MEMORANDUM* PATRICIA MARIE HOLCOMB, Defendant - Appellant.

Appeal from the United States District Court for the District of Montana Dana L. Christensen, District Judge, Presiding Submitted August 25, 2026** Before: SILVERMAN, N.R. SMITH, and DE ALBA, Circuit Judges.

Patricia Marie Holcomb appeals from the district court’s judgment and challenges her guilty-plea conviction and 120-month sentence for possession with intent to distribute methamphetamine in violation of 21 U.S.C. § 841(a)(1).

Holcomb’s counsel filed a brief under Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738

* This disposition is not appropriate for publication and is not precedent except as provided by Ninth Circuit Rule 36-3. (1967), stating that there are no non-frivolous arguments for appeal. Holcomb has not filed a pro se supplemental brief.

Our independent review of the record, see Penson v. Ohio, 488 U.S. 75, 80 (1988), discloses no non-frivolous arguments to be made on direct appeal.

Counsel’s motion to withdraw is granted.

AFFIRMED.

2 25-7062

* The panel unanimously concludes this case is suitable for decision without oral argument. See Fed. R. App. P. 34(a)(2).
