Appeal from the United States District Court for the

Before MARCUS, PRYOR and ANDERSON, Circuit Judges
PER CURIAM:
Robert F. Clark, retained counsel for Michael Orange in this direct criminal
appeal, 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 Orange’s convictions and sentences are AFFIRMED.
