Darlene M. Geiger, appointed counsel for Clayton K. Upshaw, 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 *899merit, counsel’s motion to withdraw is GRANTED, and the district court’s denial of Upshaw’s motion to reduce his sentence, pursuant to 18 U.S.C. § 3582(c)(2), is AFFIRMED.
