Opinion:
PER CURIAM:
Gail M. Stage, on behalf of Michael Caruso, interim Federal Public Defender and appointed counsel for Bernard Shaw in this appeal from the denial of an 18 U.S.C. § 3582(c)(2) sentence reduction motion, has moved to withdraw from further representation of the appellant and has 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 record reveals that counsel's assessment of the relative merit of the appeal is correct. Because independent examination of the entire record reveals no issues of arguable merit, counsel's motion to withdraw is GRANTED, and the denial of Shaw's § 3582(c)(2) motion to reduce his sentence is AFFIRMED.
