2 Opinion of the Court 25-12250
from further representation of the appellant and filed a brief pursu-
ant to Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738 (1967). Our independent
review of the entire record reveals that counsel’s assessment of the
relative merit of the appeal is correct. Because independent exam-
ination of the entire record reveals no arguable issues of merit,
counsel’s motion to withdraw is GRANTED, and Blackshear’s
convictions and total sentence are AFFIRMED.
