April 11, 2002
Before SMITH, DeMOSS, and PARKER, Circuit Judges.
PER CURIAM:*
The Federal Public Defender representing Jose Israel Romero
(Romero) has requested leave to withdraw as counsel and has filed
a brief as required by Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738 (1967).
Romero has not filed a response. Our independent review of the
brief and the record discloses no nonfrivolous issue.
Accordingly, 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.
