Appeal from the United States District Court
for the Southern District of Texas
USDC No. B-99-CR-387-1
--------------------
August 3, 2000
Before SMITH, BENAVIDES, and DENNIS, Circuit Judges.
PER CURIAM:*
The Federal Public Defender appointed to represent Manuel
Martinez has requested leave to withdraw and has filed a brief
pursuant to Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738 (1967). Martinez
received a copy of counsel's motion and brief but has not filed a
response. Our independent review of the brief and the record
discloses no nonfrivolous issue for appeal. Accordingly, the
motion to withdraw is granted, counsel is excused from further
responsibilities herein, and the appeal is DISMISSED. See 5th
Cir. R. 42.2.
