United States v. Juvenile Male

420 F. App'x 778

Opinion

MEMORANDUM **

R.C., a juvenile male, appeals from an order in which the district court adjudged him to be a juvenile delinquent and sentenced him to five years detention based on violations of 18 U.S.C. § 2242(2)(B) (sexual abuse) and 18 U.S.C. § 1153(a) (offense committed within Indian country). Pursuant to Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738, 87 S.Ct. 1396, 18 L.Ed.2d 493 (1967), R.C.’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. No pro se supplemental brief or answering brief has been filed.

Our independent review of the record pursuant to Penson v. Ohio, 488 U.S. 75, 80-81, 109 S.Ct. 346, 102 L.Ed.2d 300 (1988), discloses no arguable grounds for relief on direct appeal.

Counsel’s motion to withdraw is GRANTED, and the district court’s order is AFFIRMED.
