UNITED STATES OF AMERICA,
Plaintiff-Appellee,
versus
MARIS C. POWELL,
a.k.a. Maris Christopher Powell,
Defendant-Appellant.

Appeal from the United States District Court
for the Middle District of Florida
________________________
(June 22, 2017)
Before MARTIN, JULIE CARNES and ANDERSON, Circuit Judges.
PER CURIAM:

-- 1 of 2 --

2
Thomas A. Burns, appointed counsel for Maris Powell 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 Powell’s appeal is correct. Because
independent examination of the entire record reveals no arguable issues of merit,
counsel’s motion to withdraw is GRANTED, and Powell’s conviction and
sentence is AFFIRMED.
