Annotate this Case
U.S. Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit - 67 F.3d 310 (9th Cir. 1995) Submitted Aug. 14, 1995. *Decided Aug. 22, 1995

Before: FLETCHER, POOLE, and O'SCANNLAIN, Circuit Judges.


MEMORANDUM** 

Heriberto Garcia Ontiveros appeals the 180-month sentence imposed following his guilty plea to conspiracy to distribute and possess with intent to distribute a controlled substance (21 U.S.C. § 846 and 21 U.S.C. § 841(a) (1)), possession of a controlled substance with intent to distribute (21 U.S.C. § 841(a) (1) and 18 U.S.C. § 2), and use of a firearm during a drug trafficking crime (18 U.S.C. § 924(c) (1)). Pursuant to Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738 (1967), Garcia Ontiveros' attorney submitted a brief stating that she finds no meritorious issues for review and a motion to withdraw as counsel of record. Our independent review of the record pursuant to Penson v. Ohio, 488 U.S. 75, 83 (1988), disclosed no non-frivolous issues for review. The 180-month sentence imposed by the district court is well within the Sentencing Guidelines.

The motion of counsel to withdraw is GRANTED and the district court's judgment is AFFIRMED.
