Appeal from the United States District Court

Before MARCUS, PRYOR and KRAVITCH, Circuit Judges.
PER CURIAM:
Case: 12-12464 Date Filed: 01/03/2013 Page: 1 of 2

-- 1 of 2 --

Christopher E. Chapman, appointed counsel for Elijah Nahum Simmons 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, 87
S.Ct. 1396, 18 L.Ed.2d 493 (1967). 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, and Simmons’s
convictions and sentences are AFFIRMED.
