California, 386 U.S. 738 , 87 S.Ct. 1396 , 18 L.Ed.2d 493 *465 (1967), Farias’s counsel has filed a brief stating that there are no grounds for relief, along with a motion to withdraw as counsel of record.

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 on direct appeal. Counsel’s motion to withdraw is GRANTED. AFFIRMED. This disposition is not appropriate for publication and is not precedent except as provided by 9th Cir. R. 36-3.
