                          Appeal from the United States District Court
                              for the Northern District of Florida
                                ________________________

                                       (March 23, 2011)

Before CARNES, PRYOR and ANDERSON, Circuit Judges.

PER CURIAM:

         Robert Augustus Harper, Jr., appointed counsel for James Johnson 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, Johnson’s motion for the

appointment of substitute counsel is DENIED, and Johnson’s convictions and

sentences are AFFIRMED.
