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

                              (February 12, 2008)

Before BLACK, MARCUS and WILSON, Circuit Judges.

PER CURIAM:

      Ryan Truskoski, appointed counsel for Carlos Perlaza-Obando 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 Perlaza-Obando’s conviction

and sentence are AFFIRMED.
