Before RILEY, HANSEN, and SMITH, Circuit Judges.
                            ___________

PER CURIAM.

       Jose Sanchez-Gonzales, a/k/a Jesus Sandoval, pled guilty to illegal reentry
after deportation, in violation of 8 U.S.C. § 1326(a), and possessing with intent to
distribute 100 kilograms or more of a mixture or substance containing marijuana, in
violation of 21 U.S.C. § 841(a)(1), (b)(1)(B)(vii). The district court1 sentenced him


      1
       The Honorable Robert W. Pratt, United States District Judge for the Southern
District of Iowa.
to concurrent prison terms of 24 months on the illegal-reentry count and 120 months
on the drug count, to be followed by concurrent supervised-release terms totaling 8
years. On appeal, counsel has moved to withdraw and has filed a brief under Anders
v. California, 
386 U.S. 738
(1967).

       We find no plain error in the court’s acceptance of the guilty plea. See United
States v. Vonn, 
535 U.S. 55
, 58-59 (2002). Further, we have reviewed the record
independently under Penson v. Ohio, 
488 U.S. 75
, 80 (1988), and we find no
nonfrivolous issues. Accordingly, we grant counsel’s motion to withdraw, and we
affirm.

      A true copy.

             Attest:

                     CLERK, U.S. COURT OF APPEALS, EIGHTH CIRCUIT.
