PER CURIAM.
Armando Palma-Martinez pleaded guilty to transporting illegal aliens for
commercial advantage and private financial gain. On appeal from the sentence of
imprisonment and supervised release imposed by the district court,* Palma-Martinez's
counsel filed a brief contending the district court imposed an overly harsh sentence and
moved to withdraw under Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738 (1967). Palma-Martinez
raises several additional arguments in his pro se supplemental brief. Having considered
*
The Honorable Lyle E. Strom, United States District Judge for the District of
Nebraska.
the briefs filed by counsel and Palma-Martinez and the record, we find no nonfrivolous
issues for appeal. See Penson v. Ohio, 488 U.S. 75, 80 (1988); Anders, 386 U.S. at
744. We thus affirm the judgment of the district court and grant counsel's motion to
withdraw.
