                Appeal from the United States District Court
                    for the Middle District of Florida
                     _________________________

                            (November 18, 2005)

Before CARNES, PRYOR and FAY, Circuit Judges.

PER CURIAM:
      David J. Joffe, counsel for Margarito Cruz Sanchez in this direct criminal

appeal, has moved to withdraw from further representation of 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 Cruz Sanchez’s convictions and sentences

are AFFIRMED.
