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

                               (May 31, 2007)

Before WILSON, PRYOR and FAY, Circuit Judges.

PER CURIAM:

     Cynthia W. Roseberry, appointed counsel for Leonard Smith 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 entire record reveals no arguable issues of merit,

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

are AFFIRMED.
