MEMORANDUM **
Jesus Raul Salazar-Espinoza appeals from the district courts judgment and challenges his guilty-plea convictions and aggregate 180-month sentence for possession with intent to distribute methamphetamine, in violation of 21 U.S.C. § 841(a)(1) and (b)(1)(A)(viii), and possession of a firearm in furtherance of a drug trafficking crime, in violation of 18 U.S.C. § 924(c)(1)(A)(i). Pursuant to Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738, 87 S.Ct. 1396, 18 L.Ed.2d 493 (1967), Salazar-Espinozas counsel has filed a brief stating that there are no grounds for relief, along with a motion to withdraw as counsel of record. Salazar-Espinoza has filed a pro se supplemental brief and request to appoint new counsel. The government has moved for summary affirmance.
Salazar-Espinoza waived his right to appeal his convictions, with the exception of an appeal based on a claim that his pleas were involuntary. Salazar-Espinoza also waived the right to appeal most aspects of his sentence. Our independent review of the record pursuant to Penson v. Ohio, 488 U.S. 75, 80, 109 S.Ct. 346, 102 L.Ed.2d 300 (1988), discloses no arguable grounds for relief as to the voluntariness of Salazar-Espinozas pleas or any aspect of the sentence that falls outside the scope of the appeal waiver. We, therefore, affirm as to those issues, and grant in part the governments motion for summary affirmance. Having found no arguable issues as to the enforceability of the appeal waiver, we dismiss the remainder of the appeal. See United States v. Watson, 582 F.3d 974, 988 (9th Cir. 2009).
The governments motion to file under seal its motion to seal and its motion for summary affirmance is GRANTED. The Clerk will maintain under seal the motions submitted at Docket Entry Nos. 32-1 and 32-2.
Counsels motion to withdraw is GRANTED. Salazar-Espinozas request to appoint new counsel is DENIED.
AFFIRMED in part; DISMISSED in part.
