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

                              (October 3, 2007)

Before BLACK, MARCUS and WILSON, Circuit Judges.

PER CURIAM:

     Latisha V. Colvin, appointed counsel for Henry Clifford Johnson on this
direct criminal appeal, has filed a motion to withdraw on appeal supported by a

brief prepared pursuant to Anders v. California, 

, 

, 

(1967). Our independent review of the 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 Johnson’s conviction and sentence are

AFFIRMED. Johnson’s motion for new counsel is, accordingly, DENIED.
