    D. C. Docket No. 07-00185-CR-WS


    UNITED STATES OF AMERICA,

    Plaintiff-Appellee,
    versus
    JAMES ZELL BISHOP,
    a.k.a. Peter Bishop,
    Defendant-Appellant.

    ________________________
    Appeal from the United States District Court
    for the Southern District of Alabama
    _________________________
    (January 22, 2009)
    Before BLACK, BARKETT and FAY, Circuit Judges.
    PER CURIAM:
    Elsie Mae Miller, appointed appellate counsel for James Zell Bishop, 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 counsels
    assessment of the relative merit of the appeal is correct. Because independent
    examination of the entire record reveals no arguable issues of merit, counsels
    motion to withdraw is GRANTED, and Bishops conviction and sentence are
    AFFIRMED.
