1396, 18 L.Ed.2d 493 (1967). Our independent review of the entire record reveals
that counsels assessment of the relative merit of the appeal is correct. Because
independent examination of the entire record reveals no arguable issues of merit,
counsels motion to withdraw is GRANTED, and Bertrands convictions and
sentences are AFFIRMED.
