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

                              (March 20, 2007)

Before DUBINA, CARNES and BARKETT, Circuit Judges.

PER CURIAM:

     Phil Cannon, appointed counsel for Nathan Deon Jones 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). As a preliminary matter, counsel’s motion to renew

his original motion to withdraw and Anders brief out of time is GRANTED.

      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 Jones’s conviction and sentence is

AFFIRMED.
