MARIO MELO,
Defendant-Appellant.

Appeal from the United States District Court
for the Southern District of Florida
_________________________
(October 6, 2008)
Before BIRCH, CARNES and BARKETT, Circuit Judges.
PER CURIAM:
Neal Gary Rosensweig, counsel for Mario Melo, 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). Because our
independent review of the entire record reveals no issues of arguable merit,
counsel’s motion to withdraw is GRANTED and Melo’s sentence following
re-sentencing is AFFIRMED. We DENY as moot Melo’s motion to dismiss
counsel on appeal, and we DENY Melo’s motions to dismiss his appeal and/or
hold his appeal in abeyance.
