                    Appeal from the United States District Court
                       for the Western District of Louisiana
                               No. 1:07-CR-10017-1


Before DAVIS, SMITH, and DENNIS, Circuit Judges.
PER CURIAM:*
       The Federal Public Defender appointed to represent Brian Wallace has
moved for leave to withdraw and has filed a brief in accordance with Anders v.
California, 386 U.S. 738 (1967). Wallace has not filed a response. Our indepen-
dent review of the record and counsel’s brief discloses no nonfrivolous issue 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 5 TH C IR. 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 R. 47.5, the court has determined that this opinion should not
be published and is not precedent except under the limited circumstances set forth in 5TH CIR .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.
