                          Appeal from the United States District Court
                              for the Southern District of Florida

                                     (September 8, 2010)

Before BARKETT, HULL and WILSON, Circuit Judges.

PER CURIAM:

         Margaret Foldes, appointed counsel for Luis Baez, 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 Baez’s conviction and sentence are AFFIRMED.
