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

                              (January 29, 2009)

Before BLACK, PRYOR and KRAVITCH, Circuit Judges.

PER CURIAM:

     Thomas John Butler, appointed counsel for Kendell Lee Starks in this
appeal, has moved to withdraw from further representation of the appellant and

filed a brief pursuant to Anders v. California, 

, 

,

(1967). Because independent examination of the entire record

reveals no arguable issues of merit, counsel’s motion to withdraw is GRANTED,

and Starks’s conviction and sentence are AFFIRMED.
