Before: MAGILL,… RYMER and THOMAS, Circuit Judges.
Carl Anders Eckstrom appeals the district court's decision to deny his petition pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 2254 for habeas corpus relief. Eckstrom's attorney has filed a motion to withdraw and submitted a brief pursuant to Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738 (1967), stating that there are no meritorious issues upon which to appeal. Our independent review of the record pursuant to Penson v. Ohio, 488 U.S. 75, 82-83 (1988), discloses no issues for review. Accordingly, we affirm the district court's decision to deny Eckstrom's petition and grant counsel's motion to withdraw.
