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

                              (January 20, 2010)

Before BARKETT, HULL and KRAVITCH, Circuit Judges.

PER CURIAM:

     Lynn Palmer Bailey, appointed counsel for Dontrell A. Thomas, has filed a
motion to withdraw on appeal 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 the district court’s denial of relief under 18

U.S.C. § 3582(c)(2) is AFFIRMED.
