Mark W. Ciaravella, appointed counsel for Roginald Charles Smiley in this direct criminal appeal, has filed a renewed motion to withdraw from further representation of the appellant, supported by a brief, filed pursuant to Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738, 87 S.Ct. 1396, 18 L.Ed.2d 493 (1967). Because our independent examination of the entire record reveals no arguable issues of merit, counsel’s motion to withdraw is GRANTED, and Smiley’s conviction and sentence are AFFIRMED.
