Summary Calendar
UNITED STATES OF AMERICA,
Plaintiff-Appellee,
VERSUS
WILLIAM ESCALANTE-PAZ, also known
as William Eulises Escalante,
Defendant-Appellant.
--------------------
Appeal from the United States District Court
for the Southern District of Texas
USDC No. H-99-CR-89-1
--------------------
January 26, 2000
Before DAVIS, EMILIO M. GARZA, and DENNIS, Circuit Judges.
PER CURIAM:*
The Federal Public Defender appointed to represent William
Escalante-Paz has moved for leave to withdraw and filed a brief as
required by Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738 (1967). Escalante
has received a copy of counsel’s motion and brief but has not filed
a response. Our independent review of counsel’s 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.
