    Before BOWMAN, MURPHY, and RILEY, Circuit Judges.
    ___________
    PER CURIAM.
    Rodney Harper pleaded guilty to possessing with intent to distribute more than
    50 grams of a mixture containing cocaine base, in violation of 
    21 U.S.C. § 841
    (a)(1)
    and (b)(1)(A)(iii); and carrying a firearm during and in relation to a drug-trafficking
    crime, in violation of 
    18 U.S.C. § 924
    (c)(1)(A). The district court1 sentenced Harper
    to consecutive prison terms of 151 months on the drug conviction and 60 months on
    the firearm conviction; concurrent supervised-release terms of 5 years and 3 years,
    respectively; and a $2,500 fine. On appeal, Harper’s counsel has moved to withdraw,
    1
    The Honorable Robert T. Dawson, United States District Judge for the
    Western District of Arkansas.
    and has filed a brief under Anders v. California, 
    386 U.S. 738
     (1967), raising
    numerous points.
    Counsel correctly notes that none of these points present a meritorious issue.
    After conducting a careful, independent review of the record in accordance with
    Penson v. Ohio, 
    488 U.S. 75
    , 80 (1988), we have found no nonfrivolous issues. Thus,
    we grant counsel’s motion to withdraw, and we affirm.
    A true copy.
    Attest:
    CLERK, U.S. COURT OF APPEALS, EIGHTH CIRCUIT.
