UNITED STATES OF AMERICA,
Plaintiff-Appellee,
versus
CORDELL JONES,
Defendant-Appellant.

Appeal from the United States District Court
for the Middle District of Florida

(February 10, 2016)
Before TJOFLAT, HULL and BLACK, Circuit Judges.
PER CURIAM:
Case: 15-10932 Date Filed: 02/10/2016 Page: 2 of 2
Angelo Ferlita, appointed counsel for Cordell Jones 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). Moreover, Jones has filed a motion for appointment of new
counsel. 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 Jones=s conviction and sentence are
AFFIRMED. Jones’s motion for appointment of new counsel is DENIED.
