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

                             (August 18, 2017)

Before ED CARNES, Chief Judge, JULIE CARNES, and JILL PRYOR, Circuit
Judges.

PER CURIAM:
              Case: 16-17418    Date Filed: 08/18/2017   Page: 2 of 2


      Stephen A. Mosca, appointed counsel for Andre Alston 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 Alston’s conviction and sentence are AFFIRMED.
