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

                             (October 13, 2009)

Before BIRCH, HULL and KRAVITCH, Circuit Judges.

PER CURIAM:

     William Gregory Hughes, appointed counsel for Richard Lee Bradley in this
direct criminal appeal, has moved to withdraw from further representation of the

appellant and filed a brief prepared pursuant to Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738,

87 S. Ct. 1396, 18 L. Ed. 2d 493 (1967). Because independent examination of the

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

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