              Case: 13-13210     Date Filed: 01/21/2014   Page: 2 of 2

Before TJOFLAT, HULL and MARCUS, Circuit Judges.

PER CURIAM:

      Meghan Ann Collins, appointed counsel for Michael Denard Jones in his

sentence-reduction proceedings pursuant to 18 U.S.C. § 3582(c)(2), has filed a

motion to withdraw on appeal, supported by a brief prepared 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 the

denial of Jones’s § 3582(c)(2) motion is AFFIRMED.
