Docket No. 3:10-cr-00096-LC-1 UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, Plaintiff-Appellee, versus OSHANI TOMAR RICE, Defendant-Appellant. ________________________ Appeal from the United States District Court for the Northern District of Florida ________________________ (October 26, 2011) Before EDMONDSON, CARNES and KRAVITCH, Circuit Judges. PER CURIAM: Chet Kaufman, appointed counsel for Oshani Rice, in this direct criminal appeal, has filed a motion to withdraw from further representation of the appellant, because counsel believes that the appeal is without merit. Counsel has 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 record reveals that counsel s assessment of the relative merit of the appeal is correct. Because independent examination of the entire record reveals no arguably meritorious issues of merit, counsel s motion to withdraw is GRANTED, and Rice s conviction and sentence are AFFIRMED. 2
