(October 31, 2018) Before BRANCH, HULL and JULIE CARNES, Circuit Judges. PER CURIAM:

Case: 18-11223 Date Filed: 10/31/2018 Page: 2 of 2

Brian Joseph Huffman, Jr., appointed counsel for Ernest Jackson 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 Jackson’s convictions and sentences are AFFIRMED.
