PER CURIAM:
Neal Gary Rosensweig, appointed counsel for Alberto Gonzalez in this direct criminal appeal, has moved to withdraw from further representation of appellant and 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 Gonzalez’s conviction and sentence are AFFIRMED.
