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

                              (February 5, 2009)

Before BIRCH, HULL and KRAVITCH, Circuit Judges.

PER CURIAM:

     Robert Ratliff, appointed counsel for Aaron Austin Graham 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 Graham’s conviction and sentence are AFFIRMED.
