                       --------------------
           Appeal from the United States District Court
                for the Southern District of Texas
                     USDC No. 4:99-CR-517-ALL
                       --------------------

Before KING, Chief Judge, and HIGGINBOTHAM and SMITH, Circuit Judges.

PER CURIAM:*

     The Federal Public Defender appointed to represent Darrell

Wayne Bridges has moved to withdraw and has filed a brief as

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

has not filed a response to counsel’s motion to withdraw.

     Our independent review of the brief and the record discloses

no nonfrivolous issues for appeal.   Counsel’s motion for leave to

withdraw is GRANTED, counsel is excused from further

responsibilities herein, 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this opinion should not be published and is not precedent except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.
