JORGE ALBERTO ESCOBAR-LARA,
Defendant-Appellant.
--------------------
Appeal from the United States District Court
for the Southern District of Texas
USDC No. B-00-CR-451-1
--------------------
February 21, 2002
Before JOLLY, JONES, and BENAVIDES, Circuit Judges.
PER CURIAM:*
The Federal Public Defender appointed to represent Jorge
Alberto Escobar-Lara (Escobar) has moved to withdraw and has
filed a brief as required by Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738
(1967). Escobar has 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, counsel’s motion for leave to withdraw is
GRANTED, counsel is excused from further responsibilities herein,
and the appeal is DISMISSED. 5TH CIR. R. 42.2.
