Appeal from the United States District Court
for the Northern District of Georgia
_________________________
(December 11, 2009)
Before CARNES, BARKETT and HULL, Circuit Judges.
PER CURIAM:
Thomas C. Wooldridge, appointed counsel for Garrette Ragland in this
appeal from the district court’s order granting the government’s Rule 35(b) motion,
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 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 Ragland’s amended sentence is
AFFIRMED.
