UNITED STATES of America, Plaintiff-Appellee, v. Michael HEADRICK, Defendant-Appellant, 163 F. App'x 802

PER CURIAM: Julian B. Smith, Jr., appointed counsel for Michael Headrick in this direct criminal appeal, filed a renewed motion 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). We denied counsel’s renewed motion without prejudice and ordered him to provide a transcript of the Rule 11 change-of-plea hearing. Counsel has now supplemented the record on appeal with the requested transcript, and we construe this filing as a resubmission of his renewed motion to withdraw and Anders brief.

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 Headrick’s conviction and sentence are AFFIRMED.
