Before WILSON, JORDAN and ANDERSON, Circuit Judges.
PER CURIAM:
Case: 12-10343 Date Filed: 09/24/2012 Page: 1 of 2

-- 1 of 2 --

Gwendolyn Spivey, appointed counsel for Jimmy D. Howard 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 Howard’s conviction and
sentence are AFFIRMED.
