_________________________

(September 10, 2012) Before BARKETT, PRYOR and ANDERSON, Circuit Judges PER CURIAM:

Thomas John Bulter, appointed counsel for Wilens Bertrand 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.

Case: 11-14431 Date Filed: 09/10/2012 Page: 2 of 2 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 Bertrand’s convictions and sentences are AFFIRMED.
