Before HIGGINBOTHAM, DAVIS, and EMILIO M. GARZA, Circuit Judges.

PER CURIAM:*

     Court-appointed counsel for Felix Gonzalez, Jr., has moved

for leave to withdraw and has filed a brief as required by Anders

v. California, 386 U.S. 738 (1967).   Gonzalez has responded,

requesting to retain his counsel or to have new counsel appointed

        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that this opinion should not be published and is not precedent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.

than a two-level decrease.

     Our independent review of the brief, Gonzalez’ responses,

and the record, including the waiver-of-appeal provision in the

plea agreement, discloses no nonfrivolous issues for appeal.

Accordingly, 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.
