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

                             (July 2, 2007)

Before ANDERSON, BLACK and BARKETT, Circuit Judges.

PER CURIAM:
      Alex Fitzgerald Hall, appointed counsel for Hilario Salinas-Lopez 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.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 Salinas-Lopez’s conviction and

sentence are AFFIRMED.
