               Appeal from the United States District Court
                  for the Northern District of Alabama
                      ________________________

                            (October 8, 2019)

Before ED CARNES, Chief Judge, MARCUS, and ROSENBAUM, Circuit
Judges.

PER CURIAM:
              Case: 18-13812    Date Filed: 10/08/2019   Page: 2 of 2


      John Douglas Lloyd, appointed counsel for Jose Gallegos 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 (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 Gallegos’s conviction and sentence are AFFIRMED.
