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

                           (February 26, 2007)

Before TJOFLAT, ANDERSON and HULL, Circuit Judges.

PER CURIAM:
      Robert C. Port, appointed counsel for Samuel Boney in this 28 U.S.C.

§ 2254 habeas case, 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 the district court’s denial of

Boney’s “motion to reopen case for rehearing and/or reconsideration” is

AFFIRMED.
