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

                               (March 12, 2009)

Before TJOFLAT, MARCUS and ANDERSON, Circuit Judges.

PER CURIAM:

     James W. Smith, III, appointed counsel for Willie Charles Jackson, 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 the denial of Jackson’s motion to reduce his sentence is

AFFIRMED.
