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

                              (August 27, 2009)

Before TJOFLAT, EDMONDSON and HILL, Circuit Judges.

PER CURIAM:

     Leonard E. Clark, appointed counsel for Toye Dewayne Copeland in this
appeal from the district court’s order denying relief under 18 U.S.C. § 3582(c)(2),

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

withdraw is GRANTED, and the district court’s denial of relief under § 3582(c)(2)

is AFFIRMED.
