UNITED STATES OF AMERICA,
Plaintiff-Appellee,
versus
JAMES RONNIE STEPAN, SR.,
Defendant-Appellant.
--------------------
Appeal from the United States District Court
for the Western District of Texas
USDC No. W-02-CR-30-1
--------------------
February 20, 2003
Before WIENER, EMILIO M. GARZA, and CLEMENT, Circuit Judges.
PER CURIAM:*
Court-appointed counsel for James Ronnie Stepan, Sr., has
filed a motion to withdraw as counsel and a brief in accordance
with Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738 (1967). Stepan has not
filed a response. Our independent review of the record and
counsel’s brief discloses no nonfrivolous issue. Accordingly,
counsel’s motion to withdraw is GRANTED, counsel is excused from
further responsibilities, and the APPEAL IS DISMISSED. See
5TH CIR. R. 42.2.
