PER CURIAM:

Albert Norton, Jr., appointed counsel for Shawn Brown 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 entire record, including Brown’s responses to counsel’s motion, 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. Brown’s motion to proceed in forma pauperis and motions to discharge counsel and appoint new counsel are DENIED AS MOOT.

At sentencing, the district court pronounced a restitution amount of $1,230,021. However, that amount does not match the amount in the written judgment and the record contains no explanation for the discrepancy. We therefore AFFIRM Brown’s conviction and sentence but REMAND with instructions to correct the clerical error in the written judgment. See United States v. Massey, 443 F.3d 814, 822 (11th Cir.2006); Fed.R.Crim.P. 36.

MOTION TO WITHDRAW GRANTED. CONVICTION AND SENTENCE AFFIRMED; REMANDED FOR THE PURPOSE OF CORRECTING JUDGMENT.
