United States v. Nason

UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS FOR THE NINTH CIRCUIT
Oct 3, 2011

NOT FOR PUBLICATION

MEMORANDUM

This disposition is not appropriate for publication and is not precedent except as provided by 9th Cir. R. 36-3.


Appeal from the United States District Court
for the District of Oregon Michael R. Hogan, District Judge, Presiding

Before: HAWKINS, SILVERMAN, and W. FLETCHER, Circuit Judges.

Justin Douglas Nason appeals from his guilty-plea conviction and 180-month sentence for being a felon in possession of a firearm, in violation of 18 U.S.C. §§ 922(g)(1), 924(e). Pursuant to Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738 (1967), Nason'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. Nason has filed a pro se brief, and no 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.

Accordingly, counsel's motion to withdraw is GRANTED, and the district court's judgment is AFFIRMED.
