Description
Ezequiel Torres appeals his conviction and 87-month sentence imposed following entry of a guilty plea to conspiracy to distribute and possess with intent to distribute cocaine base in violation of 21 U.S.C. ร§ 846. Pursuant to Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738, 18 L. Ed. 2d 493, 87 S. Ct. 1396 (1967), Torres counsel filed both a brief stating that he finds no arguable issues for review and a motion to withdraw as counsel of record. Torres filed a pro se brief raising four issues for review: (1) whether his plea was involuntary because the district court failed to comply with Fed. R. Crim. P. 11; (2) whether the district court denied him his allocution right; (3) whether the government breached the plea agreement; and (4) whether he was denied effective assistance of counsel. We have jurisdiction under 28 U.S.C. ร§ 1291. We affirm the district courts judgment and grant counsels motion to withdraw.
