    UNITED STATES of America, Plaintiff-Appellee, v. Kurt Allen KIMBLE, Defendant-Appellant.
    No. 04-16227
    Non-Argument Calendar.
    United States Court of Appeals, Eleventh Circuit.
    July 20, 2005.
    Gerald S. Bettman, Jacksonville, FL, for Defendant-Appellant.
    Susan Hollis Rothstein-Youakim, U.S. Attorney’s Office, Tampa, FL, for Plaintiff-Appellee.
    Before DUBINA, HULL and WILSON, Circuit Judges.
   PER CURIAM.

Gerald S. Bettman, appointed counsel for Kurt Allen Kimble in this direct criminal appeal, has moved to withdraw from further representation of Kimble 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 record reveals no arguable issues of merit, counsel’s motion to withdraw is GRANTED, and Kimble’s conviction and sentence are AFFIRMED.
