Before SMITH, DeMOSS, and PARKER, Circuit Judges.

PER CURIAM:*

     The Federal Public Defender representing Adrian Galvan-

Gallegos (Galvan) has requested leave to withdraw as counsel and

has filed a brief as required by Anders v. California, 386 U.S.

738 (1967).    Galvan has not filed a response.      Our independent

review of the brief and the record discloses no nonfrivolous

issue.   Accordingly, 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that this opinion should not be published and is not precedent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.
