UNITED STATES OF AMERICA,
Plaintiff-Appellee,
versus
JOSE VALDEZ DOMINGUEZ,
Defendant-Appellant.
________________________
Appeal from the United States District Court
for the Southern District of Florida
_________________________
(October 23, 2006)
Before DUBINA, CARNES and BARKETT, Circuit Judges
PER CURIAM:
Gustavo J. Garcia-Montes, retained counsel for Jose Valdez Dominguez 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 Dominguez’s conviction
and sentence are AFFIRMED.
