________________________ Appeal from the United States District Court for the Northern District of Florida _________________________ (October 25, 2005) Before BLACK, BARKETT and HILL, Circuit Judges PER CURIAM: Gwendolyn Spivey, appointed counsel for Darren Wayne Edeker 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 Edeker’s conviction and sentence are AFFIRMED.
