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

                               (April 25, 2006)

Before MARCUS, WILSON and PRYOR, Circuit Judges.

PER CURIAM:
      Robin J. Farnsworth, appointed counsel for Jose Manuel Vazquez in this

direct criminal appeal, 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.Ed2d 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 Vazquez*s conviction and

sentence are AFFIRMED.
