Appeal from the United States District Court

for the Middle District of Florida

(March 24, 2020) Before ED CARNES, Chief Judge, LAGOA and HULL, Circuit Judges. PER CURIAM:

Case: 18-15058 Date Filed: 03/24/2020 Page: 2 of 2

Mark Ciaravella, appointed counsel for Kristin Patterson 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 Patterson’s conviction and sentence are AFFIRMED.
