                Appeal from the United States District Court
                    for the Southern District of Florida
                      ________________________

                             (January 15, 2015)

Before JULIE CARNES, JILL PRYOR and FAY, Circuit Judges.

PER CURIAM:
              Case: 13-15636     Date Filed: 01/15/2015    Page: 2 of 2


      Grace Casas, counsel for Rene Vargas, 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). 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

Vargas’s conviction and sentence are AFFIRMED.
