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

                              (February 5, 2008)

Before DUBINA, PRYOR and FAY, Circuit Judges.

PER CURIAM:

     Howard Anderson, an Assistant Federal Public Defender and appointed
counsel for Javier Martinez, has filed a motion to withdraw on appeal supported by

a brief prepared 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 issues of arguable merit,

counsel’s motion to withdraw is GRANTED and Martinez’s conviction and

sentence are AFFIRMED.
