Defendant-Appellant.

Appeal from the United States District Court
for the Southern District of Texas
USDC No. H-98-CR-429-6
--------------------
December 12, 2001
Before HIGGINBOTHAM, BARKSDALE, and STEWART, Circuit Judges.
PER CURIAM:*
Counsel appointed to represent Melvin Dwayne Osborne, Jr.,
on appeal has moved to withdraw and has filed a brief as required
by Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738 (1967). Osborne 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.
