HOSEA SCOTT,

Defendant-Appellant.

PER CURIAM:

2

Paul Calhoun, appointed counsel for Hosea Scott 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 (1967). Scott, in turn,
has filed a motion to discharge Calhoun as counsel. 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, Scott’s motion to
discharge counsel is DENIED AS MOOT, and Scott’s conviction and sentence
are AFFIRMED.
