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

                               (August 15, 2006)

Before ANDERSON, BIRCH and MARCUS, Circuit Judges.

PER CURIAM:

      Edward E. Boshears and Randall M. Clark, appointed attorneys for Brian K.

Shipley in this direct criminal appeal, have filed a motion to withdraw, supported

by a brief prepared pursuant to Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738 (1967). Our
independent review of the entire record reveals that counsels’ assessment of the

relative merit of the appeal is correct. Because independent examination of the

entire record reveals no arguable issues of merit, counsels’ motion to withdraw is

GRANTED, and Shipley’s conviction and sentence are AFFIRMED.
