                       --------------------

Before BARKSDALE, GARZA, and CLEMENT, Circuit Judges.

PER CURIAM:*

     Counsel appointed to represent Jesus Leal Garza has

requested leave to withdraw from this appeal and has filed a

brief as required by Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738 (1967).

Leal Garza has filed a response.    Our independent review of the

brief, the record, and Leal Garza’s response discloses no

nonfrivolous issues for appeal.    Counsel’s motion for leave

to withdraw is GRANTED, counsel is excused from further

responsibilities, and the APPEAL IS DISMISSED.    See 5TH CIR.

R. 42.2.


     *
       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this opinion should not be published and is not precedent except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.
