UNITED STATES OF AMERICA,

versus

JOHNNY RIGMAIDEN,

                                         Defendant-Appellant.

                      --------------------
          Appeal from the United States District Court
               for the Northern District of Texas
                     USDC No. 1:04-CR-41-23
                      --------------------

Before BARKSDALE, GARZA, and CLEMENT, Circuit Judges.

PER CURIAM:*

     The attorney appointed to represent Johnny Rigmaiden on

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

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

has not filed a response.    Our independent review of the brief

and the record discloses no nonfrivolous issue for appeal.

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this opinion should not be published and is not precedent except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