                       USDC No. H-00-CR-245-3

Before KING, Chief Judge, and JOLLY and STEWART, Circuit Judges.

PER CURIAM:*

     The attorney appointed to represent Martine Jimenez has

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

by Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738 (1967).       Jimenez filed a

response.   Our independent review of the briefs, the record, and

Jimenez’s response discloses no nonfrivolous issue for appeal.

Accordingly, counsel’s motion for leave to withdraw is GRANTED,

counsel is excused from further responsibilities in the case, 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that this opinion should not be published and is not precedent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.
