           Appeal from the United States District Court
                for the Southern District of Texas
                       USDC No. 1:06-CR-285
                       --------------------

Before BARKSDALE, GARZA, and CLEMENT, Circuit Judges.

PER CURIAM:*

     The attorney appointed to represent Sabino Javier Martinez

has requested leave to withdraw and has filed a brief as required

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

filed a response to counsel’s motion.    Our independent review of

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this opinion should not be published and is not precedent except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