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

independent examination of the entire record reveals no arguable issues of merit,
counsel’s motion to withdraw is GRANTED and Rowley’s conviction and
sentence are AFFIRMED.
