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

                               (May 20, 2009)

Before TJOFLAT, DUBINA and BLACK, Circuit Judges.

PER CURIAM:

     Demetria Nicole Williams, appointed counsel for Jerry Jerome Anderson,
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 the denials of Anderson’s motion to reduce his sentence and

motions for reconsideration are AFFIRMED.
