Before HULL, WILSON, and MARTIN, Circuit Judges.
PER CURIAM:
James Gailey, appointed counsel for Espere Pierre, in this direct criminal
appeal, has moved to withdraw from further representation of the appellant and
Case: 15-13182 Date Filed: 05/05/2017 Page: 2 of 2
filed a brief pursuant to Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738, 87 S. Ct. 1396 (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 Pierre’s convictions and sentences are AFFIRMED.
