               Appeal from the United States District Court for the

                         _________________________
                                (April 15, 2010)

Before TJOFLAT, BIRCH and WILSON, Circuit Judges

PER CURIAM:

      Thomas John Butler, appointed counsel for James M. Henderson, 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 Henderson’s conviction and

sentence are AFFIRMED.
