Appeal from the United States District Court
for the Southern District of Alabama
_________________________
(January 26, 2012)
Before EDMONDSON, CARNES and WILSON, Circuit Judges.
PER CURIAM:
Raymond A. Pierson, appointed counsel for Thanh Nguyen 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 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 Nguyen’s convictions and
sentences are AFFIRMED.
