   MEMORANDUM

Julio Esteban-Mendez appeals his conviction by guilty plea and sentence for illegal re-entry after deportation, in violation of 8 U .S.C. § 1326(a). Esteban-Mendez’s attorney has moved to withdraw pursuant to Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738, 87 S.Ct. 1396, 18 L.Ed.2d 493 (1967), on the ground that there are no non-frivolous grounds to appeal. Esteban-Mendez did not file a pro se supplemental brief. Because our independent review of the record indicates that the plea agreement, including the waiver of the right to appeal, was entered knowingly and voluntarily, United States v. Aguilar-Muniz, 156 F.3d 974, 976 (9th Cir.1998) (waiver of right to appeal is valid if knowing and volutary), we enforce the waiver, grant counsel’s motion to withdraw, and dismiss the appeal.

DISMISSED.
