United States v. Walker

[DO NOT PUBLISH] IN THE UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS FILED FOR THE ELEVENTH CIRCUIT COURT OF APPEALS U.S. ________________________ ELEVENTH CIRCUIT JUNE 14, 2011 No. 10-15148 JOHN LEY Non-Argument Calendar CLERK ________________________ D.C. Docket No. 5:09-cr-00045-WTH-GRJ-1 UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, Plaintiff-Appellee, versus VICTOR JOHN WALKER, Defendant-Appellant. ________________________ Appeal from the United States District Court for the Middle District of Florida ________________________ (June 14, 2011) Before EDMONDSON, MARTIN and KRAVITCH, Circuit Judges. PER CURIAM: Charles E. Taylor, appointed counsel for Victor John Walker 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, 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, including Walker’s response to counsel’s motion to withdraw, reveals no arguable issues of merit, counsel’s motion to withdraw is GRANTED, and Walker’s convictions and sentences are AFFIRMED. 2
