MEMORANDUM**

2

Kevin Anthony Sanchez appeals his guilty plea conviction and sentence under the Sentencing Guidelines for multiple counts of interference with commerce by robbery in violation of 18 U.S.C. § 1951(a), and two counts of use of a firearm during a crime of violence in violation of 18 U.S.C. § 924(c)(1). Sanchez's counsel, the Federal Public Defender, has submitted a brief pursuant to Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738 (1967), and a motion to withdraw as counsel of record. Because our independent review of the record pursuant to Penson v. Ohio, 488 U.S. 75, 83 (1988), discloses no meritorious issues for review, we AFFIRM the district court's judgment and GRANT the motion of counsel to withdraw.1

The panel unanimously finds this case suitable for decision without oral argument. Fed.R.App.P. 34(a); 9th Cir.R. 34-4
