                 Appeal from the United States District Court
                     for the Southern District of Florida
                       _________________________

                               (March 3, 2011)

Before EDMONDSON, PRYOR and BLACK, Circuit Judges.

PER CURIAM:

     Sowmya Bharathi, appointed counsel for Naval Murillo Ruiz in this direct
criminal appeal, has moved to withdraw from further representation of the

appellant and filed a brief pursuant to Anders v. California, 

, 

, 

(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 Murillo Ruiz’s conviction and

sentence are AFFIRMED.
