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

                              (June 6, 2017)

Before TJOFLAT, HULL and MARCUS, Circuit Judges.

PER CURIAM:
              Case: 16-15921    Date Filed: 06/06/2017   Page: 2 of 2

      Arthur Wallace, appointed counsel for Carlos Vasquez in this direct criminal

appeal, has moved to withdraw from further representation of the 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 Vasquez’s conviction and sentence are AFFIRMED.
