Docket No. 8:08-cr-00126-EAK-TBM-2 UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, Plaintiff-Appellee, versus CHRISTOPHER POWELL, Defendant-Appellant. ________________________ Appeal from the United States District Court for the Middle District of Florida ________________________ (November 16, 2020) Before ROSENBAUM, BRANCH, and FAY, Circuit Judges. PER CURIAM: USCA11 Case: 19-14095 Date Filed: 11/16/2020 Page: 2 of 2 Mary Anderson, appointed counsel for Christopher Powell in this appeal from the partial grant of a request for a sentence reduction under 18 U.S.C. § 3582(c)(2), has moved to withdraw from further representation of the appellant and filed a brief pursuant to Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738 (1967). Powell has submitted a response to Anderson’s motion to withdraw. 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 the district court’s partial grant of Powell’s sentence-reduction request is AFFIRMED. 2
