2 Opinion of the Court 21-14453 ____________________

Before WILLIAM PRYOR, Chief Judge, and ABUDU and ANDERSON, Circuit Judges.

PER CURIAM:

Chevene King, Jr., counsel for Kevin Hooks in this direct criminal appeal, has moved to withdraw from further representa- tion of the appellant and filed a brief pursuant to Anders v. Califor- nia, 386 U.S. 738 (1967). Our independent review of the entire rec- ord 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 Hooks’s conviction and sentence are AFFIRMED.
