Defendant-Appellant.

Appeal from the United States District Court for the
Northern District of Florida
_________________________
(April 23, 2009)
Before: BLACK, BARKETT and KRAVITCH, Circuit Judges,
PER CURIAM:
Gwendolyn Spivey, appointed counsel for Larry Copeland in this appeal of the
denial of a motion for a reduced sentence, 18 U.S.C. § 3282(c)(2), has moved to
withdraw from further representation of the appellant, because, in her opinion, the
appeal is without merit. Counsel has filed a brief pursuant to Anders v. California,
386 U.S. 738, 87 S.Ct. 1396, 18 L.Ed.2d 493 (1967). Because independent
examination of the entire record reveals no arguable issues of merit, counsel’s motion
to withdraw is GRANTED, and the district court’s denial of Copeland’s 18 U.S.C.
§ 3582 motion is AFFIRMED.
