Before: FLETCHER, BRUNETTI and TROTT, Circuit Judges.
Tyrone Kelley appeals his conviction and 70-month sentence imposed following a jury trial for distribution of cocaine base in violation of 21 U.S.C. Sec. 812. Pursuant to Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738 (1967), Kelley's counsel submitted a brief stating that he finds no meritorious issues for review. Counsel also filed 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), discloses no issues for review.
The motion of counsel to withdraw is GRANTED and the conviction and sentence are AFFIRMED.
The panel unanimously finds this case suitable for decision without oral argument. Fed.R.App.P. 34(a); 9th Cir.R. 34-4
This disposition is not appropriate for publication and may not be cited to or by the courts of this circuit except as provided by 9th Cir.R. 36-3
