UNITED STATES OF AMERICA,

versus

TYRON SHAIN TARRANT,

                                    Defendant-Appellant.

                        --------------------
           Appeal from the United States District Court
                 for the Eastern District of Texas
                       USDC No. 4:04-CR-118-8
                        --------------------

Before KING, WIENER, and OWEN, Circuit Judges.

PER CURIAM:*

     The attorney appointed to represent Tryon Shain Tarrant has

requested leave to withdraw and has filed a brief as required by

Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738 (1967).    Tarrant received a

copy of counsel’s motion but filed no response.   Our independent

review of the brief and the record 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

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this opinion should not be published and is not precedent except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