Appeal from the United States District Court
for the Middle District of Florida
_________________________
(June 19, 2009)
Before BIRCH, HULL and HILL, Circuit Judges.
PER CURIAM:
Lynn Palmer Bailey, appointed counsel for Lonell Bernard Gadson in this
direct criminal appeal, has filed a motion to withdraw on appeal, supported by a
brief prepared 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 record reveals no arguable issues of merit,
counsel’s motion to withdraw is GRANTED, and Gadson’s conviction and
sentence are AFFIRMED.
