Appeal from the United States District Court

for the Northern District of Alabama

(October 8, 2019) Before ED CARNES, Chief Judge, MARCUS, and ROSENBAUM, Circuit Judges. PER CURIAM:

Case: 18-13812 Date Filed: 10/08/2019 Page: 2 of 2

John Douglas Lloyd, appointed counsel for Jose Gallegos 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 Gallegos’s conviction and sentence are AFFIRMED.
