Neal Gary Rosensweig, counsel for Mario Meló, has filed a motion to withdraw on appeal supported by a brief prepared pursuant to Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738, 87 S.Ct. 1396, 18 L.Ed.2d 493 (1967). Because our independent review of the entire record reveals no issues of arguable merit, counsel’s motion to withdraw is GRANTED and Melo’s sentence following re-sentencing is AFFIRMED. We DENY as moot Melo’s motion to dismiss counsel on appeal, and we DENY Melo’s motions to dismiss his appeal and/or hold his appeal in abeyance.
