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

                                     (December 21, 2010)

Before HULL, WILSON and MARTIN, Circuit Judges.

PER CURIAM:

         Robert Ratliff, appointed counsel for Joshua Edward Ledkins in this direct

criminal appeal, has moved to withdraw from further representation of Ledkins
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 arguably meritorious

issues, counsel’s motion to withdraw is GRANTED, and Ledkins’s conviction

and sentence is AFFIRMED.
