PER CURIAM:

J.D. Lloyd, appointed counsel for Rontavus Deandre Threatt 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 (1967).
In response, Threatt filed a construed motion to discharge counsel and appoint new
counsel. 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, Threatt’s convictions and sentences are
AFFIRMED, and Threatt’s motion to discharge counsel and appoint new counsel
is DENIED AS MOOT.
