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

                              (February 8, 2010)

Before BLACK, PRYOR and FAY, Circuit Judges.

PER CURIAM:

     Neal Gary Rosenweig, appointed counsel for Sylvia Maria Zayas, 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 record reveals no

arguable issues of merit, counsel’s motion to withdraw is GRANTED, and Zayas’s

conviction and sentence are AFFIRMED.
