2 Opinion of the Court 21-10898

Before WILSON, BRANCH, and ANDERSON, Circuit Judges. PER CURIAM: D. Campbell Bowman, Jr., appointed counsel for Antwan Benton in this direct criminal appeal, has moved to withdraw from further representation of the appellant and filed a brief prepared under Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738 (1967). Our independent review of the record reveals that counsel’s assessment of the rela- tive merit of the appeal is correct. Because independent examina- tion of the record reveals no arguable issues of merit, counsel’s mo- tion to withdraw is GRANTED, and Benton’s conviction and sen- tence are AFFIRMED.
