Before JOLLY, JONES and EMILIO M. GARZA, Circuit Judges.

PER CURIAM:*

     The Federal Public Defender appointed for Robert Paul Bacon

has filed a motion to withdraw and a brief pursuant to Anders v.

California, 386 U.S. 738 (1967).   Bacon filed no response.   Our

examination of the record and the Anders brief reveals no

nonfrivolous issue for appeal.   Counsel’s motion to withdraw is

GRANTED, and the appeal is DISMISSED.

     MOTION GRANTED; APPEAL DISMISSED.


     *
        Pursuant to 5TH CIR. R. 47.5, the court has determined
that this opinion should not be published and is not precedent
except under the limited circumstances set forth in 5TH CIR.
R. 47.5.4.
