                   Honorable Katherine Cabaniss, Judge Presiding




          MOTION TO WITHDRAW FROM REPRESENTATION

TO THE HONORABLE JUSTICES OF THE FOURTEENTH COURT OF
APPEALS:

      Comes now court-appointed appellate counsel, Deborah Summers, and

respectfully requests that she be allowed to withdraw from representation on the above

referenced appeal and in support would show the Court as follows:

                                          I

      I have reviewed the appellate record in this cause and have determined that there

are no legally cognizable arguments which could conceivably persuade this Court to

reverse my client's conviction. I have attempted to resolve doubts and
ambiguous legal questions in favor of my client and have not been able to locate one

issue which is arguable on its merits.

                                            II

       I have provided my client with a copy of my brief in this cause. I have also

provided his trial transcript and motion for an extension of time in which to allow

Appellant to file a pro se brief under the Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738 (1967)

procedure. Further, I have informed my client that he has the right to review the

appellate record and file a pro se brief.

WHEREAS PREMISES CONSIDERED, appellant counsel prays that this Court

GRANT this motion and allow counsel to withdraw from representation.



                                                   Respectfully submitted,

                                                          /s/Deborah Summers
