UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS OCT 22 2025
MOLLY C. DWYER, CLERK
U.S. COURT OF APPEALS
FOR THE NINTH CIRCUIT
UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, No. 24-4538
D.C. No. 1:22-cr-02006-MKD-1
Plaintiff - Appellee,
v. MEMORANDUM*
ZEBULION IAN LISTER,
Defendant - Appellant.
Appeal from the United States District Court
for the Eastern District of Washington
Mary K. Dimke, District Judge, Presiding
Submitted August 19, 2025**
Before: SILVERMAN, HURWITZ, and BADE, Circuit Judges.
Zebulion Ian Lister appeals from the district court’s judgment and
challenges his guilty-plea conviction and 30-month sentence for being a felon in
possession of a firearm, in violation of 18 U.S.C. § 922(g)(1).
Lister’s counsel filed a brief under Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738
*
This disposition is not appropriate for publication and is not precedent
except as provided by Ninth Circuit Rule 36-3.
**
The panel unanimously concludes this case is suitable for decision
without oral argument. See Fed. R. App. P. 34(a)(2).
(1967), stating that there are no non-frivolous arguments for appeal. Lister has not
filed a pro se supplemental brief.
In the plea agreement, Lister waived his right to appeal the conviction and
sentence.
Our independent review of the record, see Penson v. Ohio, 488 U.S. 75, 80
(1988), discloses no non-frivolous issue as to whether the appeal waiver is
enforceable. See United States v. Watson, 582 F.3d 974, 986-88 (9th Cir. 2009).
We therefore dismiss the appeal. See id. at 988.
Counsel’s motion to withdraw is granted.
DISMISSED.
