RONTAVUS DEANDRE THREATT, a.k.a. Big Boy, a.k.a. Big Homie, Defendant-Appellant.

________________________ Appeal from the United States District Court for the Northern District of Alabama ________________________ (January 7, 2021) Before LAGOA, BRASHER, and BLACK, Circuit Judges.

PER CURIAM: USCA11 Case: 20-10341 Date Filed: 01/07/2021 Page: 2 of 2

J.D. Lloyd, appointed counsel for Rontavus Deandre Threatt 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).

In response, Threatt filed a construed motion to discharge counsel and appoint new counsel. 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, Threatt’s convictions and sentences are AFFIRMED, and Threatt’s motion to discharge counsel and appoint new counsel is DENIED AS MOOT.
