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

                              (Ocrtober 22, 2008)

Before TJOFLAT, BARKETT and PRYOR, Circuit Judges

PER CURIAM:

      Wilson R. Smith, counsel for Jerome Gregory Turnquest, has filed a motion

to withdraw on appeal, supported by a brief prepared 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 Turnquest’s conviction and sentence are AFFIRMED.
