UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, Plaintiff-Appellee, v. JAVIER MUNOZ RUIZ, Defendant-Appellant.
[DO NOT PUBLISH] Non-Argument Calendar D.C. Docket No. 1:13-cr-00229-ODE-JSA-4 Appeal from the United States District Court for the Northern District of Georgia Before ED CARNES, Chief Judge, HULL and MARCUS, Circuit Judges. PER CURIAM:
Esther Panitch, appointed counsel for Javier Munoz-Ruiz 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 Munoz-Ruiz's conviction and sentence are AFFIRMED.
