              Appeal from the United States District Court
                  for the Middle District of Florida
                   _________________________
                        (September 29, 2010)
Before EDMONDSON, MARTIN and KRAVITCH, Circuit Judges.

PER CURIAM:

      Richard A. Selinger, appointed counsel for Teddy Leonel Cruz-Velez 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). Because independent examination of the entire

record reveals no arguable issues of merit, counsel’s motion to withdraw is

GRANTED, and Cruz-Velez’s conviction and sentence are AFFIRMED.
