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

                                 (March 27, 2014)

Before PRYOR, MARTIN, and FAY, Circuit Judges.

PER CURIAM:

      Robert Nye, appointed counsel for Tishard Brown in this direct criminal

appeal, has moved to withdraw from further representation of Brown, arguing that

there are no non-frivolous grounds on which Brown could appeal either his

conviction or his sentence. Nye filed a brief identifying arguable issues for appeal
             Case: 13-13220     Date Filed: 03/27/2014   Page: 2 of 2

pursuant to Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738, 87 S. Ct. 1396 (1967). Brown did

not respond to Nye’s motion to withdraw or the Anders brief.

      After a careful, independent review of the record, we conclude that there are

no non-frivolous grounds on which Brown could base an appeal. For this reason,

counsel’s motion to withdraw is GRANTED, and Brown=s conviction and sentence

are AFFIRMED.
