UNITED STATES OF AMERICA,

Plaintiff-Appellee, versus

KENNETH H. BURKE, JR.,

Defendant-Appellant. ____________________

Appeal from the United States District Court for the Middle District of Florida D.C. Docket No. 8:11-cr-00181-SDM-AAS-1 ____________________

Before NEWSOM, BRASHER, and MARCUS, Circuit Judges.

PER CURIAM:

Thomas A. Burns is appointed counsel for Kenneth H.

Burke, Jr., in this direct criminal appeal from Burke’s new sentences imposed after the grant of postconviction relief under 28 U.S.C. USCA11 Case: 24-13903 Document: 37-1 Date Filed: 07/28/2026 Page: 2 of 2

2 Opinion of the Court 24-13903 § 2255 that vacated one of his convictions. Burns has moved to withdraw from further representation of Burke and filed a brief pursuant to Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738 (1967). Our independ- ent 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, Burns’s motion to withdraw is GRANTED, and Burke’s sen- tences are AFFIRMED.
