UNITED STATES v. LONGORIA (2020)

United States Court of Appeals, Eleventh Circuit.

UNITED STATES of America, Plaintiff-Appellee, v. Ruben LONGORIA, a.k.a. Scooter, Defendant-Appellant.

No. 19-11987

Decided: January 23, 2020

Before WILSON, JILL PRYOR and ANDERSON, Circuit Judges. Jennifer Waugh Corinis, U.S. Attorney Service - Middle District of Florida, U.S. Attorney's Office, Tampa, FL, for Plaintiff-Appellee Rosemary Cakmis, Conrad Benjamin Kahn, Adam Joseph Nate, Federal Public Defender's Office, Tampa, FL, for Defendant-Appellant Ruben Longoria, Pro Se

Robert Godfrey, appointed counsel for Ruben Longoria, Jr., 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, 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 Longoria’s conviction and sentence are AFFIRMED.
