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

                                (May 25, 2005)

Before HULL, WILSON and PRYOR, Circuit Judges.

PER CURIAM:
      Percy J. Blount, appointed counsel for Derrick Malcolm Morgan , in this direct

criminal appeal, 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 record reveals no issues of arguable merit, counsel’s

motion to withdraw is GRANTED, and Morgan’s conviction and sentence are

AFFIRMED.
