2 Opinion of the Court 20-13758
Before WILLIAM PRYOR, Chief Judge, JORDAN and NEWSOM, Circuit Judges. PER CURIAM: Adam Labonte, appointed counsel for Tony Henry in this appeal from the partial denial of his motion for a reduced sentence under the First Step Act, 1 has moved to withdraw from further rep- resentation of the appellant and filed a brief pursuant to Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738 (1967). Our independent review of the en- tire record reveals that counsel’s assessment of the relative merit of the appeal is correct. 2 Because independent examination of the en- tire record reveals no arguable issues of merit, counsel’s motion to withdraw is GRANTED, and the partial denial of Henry’s motion is AFFIRMED.
1 Pub. L. No. 115-391, § 404, 132 Stat. 5194, 5222. 2 We decline counsel’s invitation to adopt the position of other Circuit Courts of Appeals regarding the applicability of Anders to the denial of motions under the First Step Act.
