FILED NOT FOR PUBLICATION UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS APR 18 2012 MOLLY C. DWYER, CLERK U .S. C O U R T OF APPE ALS FOR THE NINTH CIRCUIT UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, Plaintiff - Appellee, No. 10-50570 D.C. No. 2:09-cr-01051-GW v. MEMORANDUM * SALVADOR SANCHEZ, Jr., Defendant - Appellant. Appeal from the United States District Court for the Central District of California George H. Wu, District Judge, Presiding Submitted April 17, 2012 ** Before: LEAVY, PAEZ, and BEA, Circuit Judges. Salvador Sanchez, Jr., appeals from his guilty-plea conviction for bank robbery, in violation of 18 U.S.C. § 2113(a); his jury-trial conviction for being a felon in possession of a firearm, in violation of 18 U.S.C. § 922(g)(1); and a concurrent 180-month sentence. Pursuant to Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738 * This disposition is not appropriate for publication and is not precedent except as provided by 9th Cir. R. 36-3. ** The panel unanimously concludes this case is suitable for decision without oral argument. See Fed. R. App. P. 34(a)(2). (1967), Sanchez s counsel has filed a brief stating there are no grounds for relief, along with a motion to withdraw as counsel of record. We have provided the appellant with the 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, 80-81 (1988), discloses no arguable grounds for relief on direct appeal with respect to either of Sanchez s convictions, or the 180-month sentence imposed for being a felon in possession of a firearm. We dismiss Sanchez s appeal of the 180-month sentence imposed for bank robbery in light of the valid appeal waiver. See United States v. Nguyen, 235 F.3d 1179, 1182 (9th Cir. 2000). Counsel s motion to withdraw is GRANTED. Sanchez s convictions and the sentence imposed for being a felon in possession of a firearm are AFFIRMED. Sanchez s appeal of the sentence imposed for bank robbery is DISMISSED. 2 10-50570
