           Appeal from the United States District Court
               for the Western District of Louisiana
                      USDC No. 3:05-CR-30014-1
                        --------------------

Before JOLLY, DeMOSS, and STEWART, Circuit Judges.

PER CURIAM:*

     The Federal Public Defender (FPD) appointed to represent

Warner D. Williams on appeal has filed a motion to withdraw and a

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

Williams has filed a response and moves for release pending

appeal.   Our independent review of counsel’s brief, Williams’s

response, and the record discloses no nonfrivolous issue.

Accordingly, the FPD’s motion to withdraw is GRANTED, Williams’s

motion for release pending appeal is DENIED, counsel is excused
