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

(June 2, 2010)
Before BARKETT, HULL and WILSON, Circuit Judges.
PER CURIAM:
O. Hale Almand, Jr., appointed counsel for Michael Tyrone Adams, has
moved to withdraw from further representation of the appellant, because, in his
opinion, the appeal is without merit. Counsel has 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 to withdraw is
GRANTED, and Adams’s conviction and sentence is AFFIRMED.
