Thomas C. Wooldridge, appointed counsel for Garrette Ragland in this appeal from the district court’s order granting the government’s Rule 35(b) motion, 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 Ragland’s amended sentence is AFFIRMED.
