UNITED STATES of America, Plaintiff-Appellee, v. Mark D. EMMONS, Defendant-Appellant, 231 F. App'x 939

PER CURIAM: Robert Calvin Rivers, appointed counsel for Mark D. Emmons on this direct criminal appeal, has filed a motion to withdraw supported by a brief prepared pursuant to Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738, 87 S.Ct. 1396, 18 L.Ed.2d 493 (1967). Our independent review of the record reveals that counsel’s assessment of the relative merit of this appeal is correct. Because independent examination of the record reveals no issues of arguable merit, counsel’s motion to withdraw is GRANTED, and Emmons’s conviction and sentence are AFFIRMED.
