IN THE UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS

FOR THE ELEVENTH CIRCUIT ________________________

No. 12-16386 Non-Argument Calendar ________________________

D.C. Docket No. 8:12-cr-00005-JSM-EAJ-1

UNITED STATES OF AMERICA,

Plaintiff-Appellee,

versus

VALENTIN DE LA CRUZ,

Defendant-Appellant.

__________________________

Appeal from the United States District Court for the Middle District of Florida _________________________ (July 22, 2013)

Before TJOFLAT, PRYOR and HILL, Circuit Judges.

PER CURIAM:

George Bedell, appointed counsel for Valentin de la Cruz 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, Case: 12-16386 Date Filed: 07/22/2013 Page: 2 of 2

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 de la Cruz’s conviction and

sentence are AFFIRMED.
