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

                              (April 29, 2009)

Before CARNES, WILSON and KRAVITCH, Circuit Judges.

PER CURIAM:
      David J. Joffe, appointed counsel for Orlando Maldonado 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). Because independent examination of the entire

record reveals no arguable issues of merit, counsel’s motion to withdraw is

GRANTED, and Maldonado’s conviction and sentence are AFFIRMED.
