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

                               (April 17, 2008)

Before HULL, MARCUS and WILSON, Circuit Judges.

PER CURIAM:

     Gerald B. Williams, appointed counsel for Rufus Walker, has filed a motion
to withdraw on appeal supported by 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

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 it GRANTED and Walker’s

convictions and sentences are AFFIRMED.
