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

(October 14, 2009)
Before EDMONDSON, MARCUS and ANDERSON, Circuit Judges.
PER CURIAM:
Leonard Clark, appointed counsel for Steven R. Hardy, has filed a motion to
withdraw on appeal 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 reveals no arguable
issues of merit, counsel’s motion to withdraw is GRANTED, and the district
court’s denial of § 3582(c)(2) relief is AFFIRMED.
