2 Opinion of the Court 24-11726

Before ROSENBAUM, NEWSOM, and GRANT, Circuit Judges PER CURIAM: John Lloyd, appointed counsel for Samuel Buchanan in this appeal, has moved to withdraw from further representation of the appellant and filed a brief pursuant to Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738 (1967). Our independent review of the entire record reveals that counsel’s assessment of the relative merit of the appeal is cor- rect. Because independent examination of the entire record reveals no arguable issues of merit, counsel’s motion to withdraw is GRANTED, and the district court’s order denying Buchanan’s mo- tion for a sentence reduction under 18 U.S.C. § 3582(c) is AFFIRMED.
