Before HULL, MARTIN and ANDERSON, Circuit Judges.

PER CURIAM:

Brendan N. Fleming, appointed counsel for James Butler 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 merit, 

counsel’s motion to withdraw is GRANTED, and Butler’s conviction and sentence 

are AFFIRMED.
