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

                               (November 27, 2018)

Before WILSON, NEWSOM and HULL, Circuit Judges.

PER CURIAM:

      Khurrum Wahid, appointed counsel for Yaseen Abdul-Wahhab in this direct

criminal appeal, has moved to withdraw from further representation of the
              Case: 17-14547    Date Filed: 11/27/2018   Page: 2 of 2

appellant and 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 Abdul-Wahhab’s conviction and sentence are AFFIRMED.

      Moreover, Abdul-Wahhab’s motion for appointment of substitute counsel is

DENIED as moot.
