                                   (March 4, 2013)

Before MARCUS, WILSON and KRAVITCH, Circuit Judges

PER CURIAM:

      Charles C. Mayers, appointed counsel for Robert J. Demello, Jr., 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
              Case: 12-13125    Date Filed: 03/04/2013   Page: 2 of 2

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 Demello=s conviction and

sentence are AFFIRMED.
