               Appeal from the United States District Court for the

Before ANDERSON, BARKETT and HULL, Circuit Judges

PER CURIAM:

      Ryan Thomas Truskoski, appointed counsel for Harold De La Cruz-Garcia,

in this direct criminal appeal, has moved to withdraw from further representation
of the appellant and filed a brief 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 De La Cruz-

Garcia’s conviction and sentence are AFFIRMED.
