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

                                (February 15, 2006)

Before TJOFLAT, HULL and PRYOR, Circuit Judges.

PER CURIAM:

      Chet Kaufman, appointed appellate counsel for William Eugene Boyette,

Jr., 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 Boyette’s convictions and sentences are

AFFIRMED.
