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

                              (August 24, 2006)

Before TJOFLAT, DUBINA and HULL, Circuit Judges.

PER CURIAM:

     Mauricio L. Aldazabal, counsel for Jaime Arturo Torres-Ochoa in this direct
criminal appeal, has moved to withdraw from further representation of 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 Ochoa’s convictions and

sentences are AFFIRMED.
