    (August 18, 2017)
    Roberta Josephina Bodnar, U.S. Attorney’s Office—FLM, Ocala, FL, Arthur Lee Bentley, III, U.S. Attorney’s Office, Tam-, pa,' FL, Frank Merrill Talbot, U.S. Attorney’s Office, Jacksonville, FL, for Plaintiff-Appellee
    Andre Alston, Pro Se
    Before ED CARNES, Chief Judge, JULIE CARNES, and JILL PRYOR, Circuit Judges.
   PER CURIAM:

Stephen A. Mosca, appointed counsel for Andre Alston in this direct criminal appeal, has moved to withdraw from further representation of the appellant and filed a brief pursuant to Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738, 87 S.Ct. 1396, 18 L.Ed.2d 493 (1967). Our independent review of the entire record reveals that counsel’s assessment of the relative merit of the appeal is correct. Because independent examination of the entire record reveals no arguable issues of mérit, counsel’s motion to withdraw is GRANTED, and Alston’s conviction and sentence are AFFIRMED.
