filed a brief stating that there are no grounds for relief, along with a motion to
withdraw as counsel of record. We have provided Quintanilla the opportunity to
file a pro se supplemental brief. No pro se supplemental brief or answering brief
has been filed.
Quintanilla has waived the right to appeal his sentence. Because the record
discloses no arguable issue as to the validity of the appeal waiver, we dismiss the
appeal. See United States v. Watson, 582 F.3d 974, 986-88 (9th Cir. 2009).
Counsel’s motion to withdraw is GRANTED.
DISMISSED.
