UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, Plaintiff-Appellee, versus FRANK PRUITT, Defendant-Appellant. ________________________ Appeal from the United States District Court for the Southern District of Georgia ________________________ (June 22, 2018) Before WILLIAM PRYOR, BRANCH and FAY, Circuit Judges.

PER CURIAM: Case: 16-17791 Date Filed: 06/22/2018 Page: 2 of 2

Franklin David McCrea, appointed counsel for Frank Pruitt 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 (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 Pruitt’s conviction and sentence are AFFIRMED.
