                 Appeal from the United States District Court
                     for the Southern District of Florida
                       _________________________
                             (November 18, 2008)


Before TJOFLAT, DUBINA and KRAVITCH, Circuit Judges.

PER CURIAM:

     David Joffe, appointed counsel for Corey McKinon, 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 arguable issues of merit, counsel’s motion to withdraw is GRANTED, and

McKinon’s conviction and sentence are AFFIRMED.
