(November 17, 2011)
Before EDMONDSON, CARNES and KRAVITCH, Circuit Judges
PER CURIAM:
Gerald B. Williams, appointed counsel for Joe Nathan Morgan 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.

-- 1 of 2 --

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 Morgan’s conviction and
sentence are AFFIRMED.
