UNITED STATES of America, Plaintiff-Appellee, v. Robert BELTZ, Defendant-Appellant, 351 F. App'x 342

PER CURIAM: Louis R. Hardin, appointed counsel for Robert Beltz in this direct criminal appeal, has moved to withdraw from further representation of the appellant because, in his opinion, the appeal is without merit. Counsel has 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 Beltz’s conviction and sentence are AFFIRMED.
