                   Appeal from the United States District Court
                      for the Southern District of Georgia
                         ________________________

                                (October 2, 2018)

Before MARCUS, WILLIAM PRYOR and ROSENBAUM, Circuit Judges.

PER CURIAM:

      Keith Higgins, appointed counsel for Kurlie Kemp in this direct criminal

appeal, has moved to withdraw from further representation of the appellant and
              Case: 17-12310    Date Filed: 10/02/2018   Page: 2 of 2

filed a brief pursuant to Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738 (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 Kemp’s conviction and sentence are AFFIRMED.
