UNITED STATES OF AMERICA,

Plaintiff-Appellee,

KEITH D. DAWSON,

Defendant-Appellant.

Appeal from the United States District Court for the Northern District of Florida ________________________

(July 17, 2018)

Before ROSENBAUM, JILL PRYOR, and JULIE CARNES, Circuit Judges.

PER CURIAM: Case: 18-10160 Date Filed: 07/17/2018 Page: 2 of 2

Patricia Jean Kyle, appointed counsel for Keith Dawson, 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. 1396, 18 L.Ed.2d 493 (1967). She has also moved for limited remand on the issue

of Dawson’s cooperation with the government. 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 Dawson’s

conviction and sentence are AFFIRMED. Further, because remanding the case

would serve no purpose, counsel’s motion for limited remand is DENIED.
