                                     ___________

                    On Appeal from the United States District Court

                             (D.C. Criminal No. 06-cr-00432)
                   District Judge: The Honorable A. Richard Caputo

                                     ___________

                      Submitted Under Third Circuit LAR 34.1(a)
                                  October 30, 2008

             BEFORE: McKEE, NYGAARD, and SILER,* Circuit Judges.

                               (Filed: February 4, 2009)

       *Honorable Eugene E. Siler, Jr., Senior Circuit Judge for the United States Court
of Appeals for the Sixth Circuit, sitting by designation.
                                       ___________

                               OPINION OF THE COURT
                                    ___________

NYGAARD, Circuit Judge.

       Appellant, Randy Clark Baker, entered into a plea agreement with the

Government, whereby he agreed to plead guilty to one count of unlawful possession of

child pornography. A presentence investigation report was prepared and defense counsel

filed a sentencing memorandum requesting a sentence outside and below the advisory

sentencing range. The District Court sentenced him to 78 months’ incarceration and a

special assessment of $100. We will affirm.

       Because we write exclusively for the parties who are familiar with the facts and the

proceedings below, we will not revisit them here. Pursuant to Anders v. California, 386
U.S. 738 (1967), Baker’s appointed counsel has examined the record, concluded that

there are no non-frivolous issues for review, and has requested permission to withdraw.

       We, too, have thoroughly examined the record and can find no non-frivolous

issues to be raised in this appeal. Hence, we will affirm the judgment of the District

Court and grant counsel’s motion to withdraw.
