UNITED STATES OF AMERICA,

versus

LARRY JOHN BALL,

                                       Defendant-Appellant.

                         --------------------
             Appeal from the United States District Court
                  for the Northern District of Texas
                       USDC No. 3:04-CR-373-ALL
                         --------------------

Before BARKSDALE, GARZA, and CLEMENT, Circuit Judges.

PER CURIAM:*

     The Federal Public Defender appointed to represent Larry

John Ball has requested leave to withdraw and has filed a brief

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

has not filed a response.      Our independent review of counsel’s

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this opinion should not be published and is not precedent except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