OPINION

PER CURIAM:

David Michael Corey pled guilty to distributing .13 grams of crack
cocaine within 1000 feet of a school, 21 U.S.C.A.§§ 841, 860 (West
1981 & Supp. 1995), and was sentenced to a term of 30 months
imprisonment. Corey's attorney has filed a brief in accordance with
Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738 (1967), raising one issue but stat-
ing that, in his view, there are no meritorious grounds for appeal.
Corey has been informed of his right to file a pro se supplemental
brief, but has chosen not to file a brief.

We find that the district court did not plainly err in adding two
criminal history points to Corey's criminal history score under USSG
§ 4A1.1(e).* The guideline provides that two points are added if the
defendant committed the instant offense less than two years after
release from imprisonment. Corey was paroled from a one-to-ten-year
sentence on April 17, 1992. He committed the instant offense on Feb-
ruary 14, 1994. Although he had been transferred from the state peni-
tentiary to a work release facility four months before he was paroled,
the time spent on work release counted as part of his sentence of
imprisonment.

In accordance with Anders, we have examined the entire record in
this case and find no meritorious issues for appeal. We therefore
affirm Corey's conviction and the sentence imposed by the district
court. We dispense with oral argument because the facts and legal
contentions are adequately presented in the record and briefs, and oral
argument would not aid the decisional process.

We deny counsel's motion to withdraw at this time. This court
requires that counsel inform his client, in writing, of his right to peti-
tion the Supreme Court of the United States for further review. If the
client requests that a petition be filed, but counsel believes that such
a petition would be frivolous, then counsel may move in this court for

that a copy thereof was served on the client.
