UNITED STATES OF AMERICA,
Plaintiff-Appellee,

KURT GELL,
Defendant-Appellant.

Appeal from the United States District Court
for the Middle District of Florida

(August 5, 2019)
Before TJOFLAT, MARTIN, and JORDAN, Circuit Judges.
PER CURIAM:
Michelle Yard, appointed counsel for Kurt Gell in this direct criminal
appeal, has moved to withdraw from further representation of Gell and filed a brief
Case: 18-14186 Date Filed: 08/05/2019 Page: 2 of 2
pursuant to Anders v. California,
386 U.S. 738,
87 S. Ct. 1396 (1967). Our
independent review of the entire record reveals that counsel’s assessment of the
relative merit of the appeal is correct. Because an independent examination of the
entire record reveals no arguable issues of merit, counsel’s motion to withdraw is
GRANTED, and Gell’s conviction and sentence are AFFIRMED.
