UNITED STATES OF AMERICA,

versus

NATHAN WELLS,

                                         Defendant-Appellant.

                        --------------------
           Appeal from the United States District Court
                 for the Western District of Texas
                      USDC No. 5:05-CR-300-ALL
                        --------------------
Before HIGGINBOTHAM, BENAVIDES, and PRADO, Circuit Judges.

PER CURIAM:*

     Counsel appointed to represent Nathan Wells on appeal has

moved for leave to withdraw and has filed a brief as required by

Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738 (1967).       Wells has not

responded to counsel’s motion.     Our independent review of

counsel’s brief and the record discloses no nonfrivolous issue

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this opinion should not be published and is not precedent except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