                    for the Middle District of Florida
                      ________________________

                            (October 21, 2013)

Before WILSON, PRYOR and JORDAN, Circuit Judges.
              Case: 13-11543     Date Filed: 10/21/2013   Page: 2 of 2

PER CURIAM:

      Joseph Johnson, counsel for William Joseph Califano, has moved to

withdraw from further representation of the appellant 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 arguable issues of merit, counsel’s motion is GRANTED,

and Califano’s conviction and sentence are AFFIRMED.
