September 3, 2009.
Yvette Rhodes, Tampa, FL, for Plaintiff-Appellee.
Grady Charles Irvin, Jr., Irvin Law Firm, L.L.C., Tampa, FL, for Defendant-Appellant.
Appeal from the United States District Court for the Middle District of Florida. D.C. Docket No. 07-00107-CR-T-17-EAJ.
Before TJOFLAT, EDMONDSON and HULL, Circuit Judges.
Grady C. Irvin, Jr., counsel for Terrence Taylor, has filed a renewed motion to withdraw on appeal, 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 entire record reveals that counsel's assessment of the relative merit of the appeal is correct. Because independent examination of the record reveals no arguable issues of merit, counsel's motion to withdraw is GRANTED, and Taylor's conviction and sentence are AFFIRMED.
