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

                              (May 28, 2009)

Before BLACK, PRYOR and HILL, Circuit Judges.

PER CURIAM:
      Leonard E. Clark, appointed counsel for Preston Lamar Williams in this

appeal from the district court’s denial of Williams’s motion to reduce his sentence

under 18 U.S.C. § 3582(c)(2), has moved to withdraw from further representation

of the appellant and filed a brief pursuant to Anders v. California, 

, 

, 

(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 the district court’s denial of

relief under § 3582(c)(2) is AFFIRMED.
