Appeal from the United States District Court
for the Middle District of Florida
_________________________
(October 22, 2008)
Before ANDERSON, BARKETT and HULL, Circuit Judges.
PER CURIAM:
Randee J. Golder, appointed counsel for Ricky Douglas Haynes, Jr., in this
direct criminal appeal, has renewed her motion to withdraw from further
representation of the appellant, pursuant to Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738,
87 S.Ct. 1396, 18 L.Ed.2d 493 (1967). Haynes has filed a motion to discharge
counsel and to 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, Haynes’s conviction and
sentence are AFFIRMED, and Haynes’s motion is DENIED as moot.
