Mark A. Goettel, appointed counsel for Jose Mejia, 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). 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 arguably meritorious issues, counsel’s motion to withdraw is GRANTED, and Mejia’s conviction and sentence are AFFIRMED. Mejia’s motion for appointment of counsel is DENIED as moot.
