                                  (August 9, 2011)

Before CARNES, BARKETT and KRAVITCH, Circuit Judges

PER CURIAM:

      William J. Mason, appointed counsel for Randolph Lawrence 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). 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 Lawrence’s conviction and

sentence are AFFIRMED.
