Before BLACK, BARKETT and PRYOR, Circuit Judges

PER CURIAM:

      Donald E. Colee, Jr., appointed counsel for Michael L. Crockett 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 Crockett’s

convictions and sentences are AFFIRMED.
