Thomas A. Burns, appointed counsel for Jhon Gonzalez Romero in this direct criminal appeal, 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 record reveals that counsels assessment of the relative merit of the appeal is correct. Because independent examination of the record reveals no arguable issues of merit, counsels motion to withdraw is GRANTED, and Romeros conviction and sentence are AFFIRMED.
PER CURIAM:
