   MEMORANDUM

John Eric Carpegna appeals from the district court’s order denying his 28 U.S.C. § 2255 motion challenging his convictions by guilty plea to receipt of child pornography, in violation of 18 U.S.C. § 2252A(a)(2) (Carpegna I), and possession of child pornography, in violation of 18 U.S.C. § 2252A(a)(5)(B) (Carpegna II). Pursuant to Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738, 87 S.Ct. 1396, 18 L.Ed.2d 493 (1967), Car-pegna’s counsel has filed a brief stating that there are no grounds for relief, along with a motion to withdraw as counsel of record. We have provided Carpegna 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, 109 S.Ct. 346, 102 L.Ed.2d 300 (1988), discloses no arguable grounds for relief as to the claims certified for appeal.

Counsel’s motion to withdraw is GRANTED.

Carpegna’s request for new counsel is denied.

AFFIRMED.
