          Appeal from the United States District Court
              for the Western District of Louisiana
                    USDC No. 2:03-CR-20118-ALL
                       --------------------

Before WIENER, BENAVIDES, and DENNIS, Circuit Judges.

PER CURIAM:*

     The Federal Public Defender appointed to represent Ivory L.

Simon has moved for leave to withdraw and has filed a brief in

accordance with Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738 (1967).              Our

independent review of the record, counsel’s brief, and Simon’s

response shows that there are no nonfrivolous issues for appeal.

Accordingly, the motion for leave to withdraw is GRANTED, counsel

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this opinion should not be published and is not precedent except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