   MEMORANDUM

Thomas Lee Johnson appeals his conviction, pursuant to a guilty plea, and sentence for conspiracy to interfere with commerce by robbery, using and carrying a firearm during a crime of violence, laundering of monetary instruments and related counts in violation of 18 U.S.C. §§ 1951, 924(c) and 1956(a)(1).

Johnson’s attorney has filed a brief pursuant to Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738, 87 S.Ct. 1396, 18 L.Ed.2d 493 (1967), and has moved to withdraw as counsel of record. Johnson has not filed a pro se supplemental brief.

Because our 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), indicates that the plea agreement, including the limited 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 voluntary), we enforce the waiver, grant counsel’s motion to withdraw, and dismiss the appeal.

DISMISSED.
