   MEMORANDUM

Donald Cook appeals from his guilty plea conviction and sentence imposed for mail fraud, in violation of 18 U.S.C. § 1341. Pursuant to Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738, 87 S.Ct. 1396, 18 L.Ed.2d 493 (1967), Cook’s counsel has filed a brief stating that there are no arguable issues for review, and a motion to withdraw as counsel of record. Cook has not filed a pro se supplemental brief.

Having conducted an independent review of the record pursuant to Penson v. Ohio, 488 U.S. 75, 83-84, 109 S.Ct. 346, 102 L.Ed.2d 300 (1988), we conclude that there are no arguable appellate issues on direct appeal.

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