On appeal, counsel has filed a brief pursuant to Anders v.
California, 386 U.S. 738 (1967), concluding that there are no
meritorious issues that are reviewable in light of Washingtons
appellate waiver, but arguing that the district court clearly
erred in its drug quantity determination at sentencing.
