Before DeMOSS, STEWART and PRADO, Circuit Judges.

PER CURIAM:*

        Counsel appointed to represent Francisco Villagomez-Sierra has requested leave to withdraw and

has filed a brief as required by Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738 (1967). Our independent review of the

record and counsel’s brief discloses no nonfrivolous issue for appeal. 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 R. 47.5, the court has determined that this opinion should not be
published and is not precedent except under the limited circumstances set forth in 5TH CIR.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.
