    UNITED STATES OF AMERICA,

    Plaintiff-Appellee,
    versus
    LARRY COPELAND,
    Defendant-Appellant.
    __________________________
    Appeal from the United States District Court for the
    Northern District of Florida
    _________________________
    (April 23, 2009)
    Before: BLACK, BARKETT and KRAVITCH, Circuit Judges,
    PER CURIAM:
    Gwendolyn Spivey, appointed counsel for Larry Copeland in this appeal of the
    denial of a motion for a reduced sentence, 18 U.S.C. 3282(c)(2), has moved to

    withdraw from further representation of the appellant, because, in her opinion, 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). Because independent
    examination of the entire record reveals no arguable issues of merit, counsels motion
    to withdraw is GRANTED, and the district courts denial of Copelands 18 U.S.C.
    3582 motion is AFFIRMED.
