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

                                (March 7, 2007)

Before EDMONDSON, Chief Judge, ANDERSON and BARKETT, Circuit
Judges.

PER CURIAM:

     Arthur J. Madden III, appointed appellate counsel for Crystal Jones 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 the

independent examination of the entire record reveals no arguable issues of merit,

counsel’s motion to withdraw is GRANTED, and Jones’s conviction and sentence

are AFFIRMED.

                                          2
