Defendant-Appellant.
--------------------
Appeal from the United States District Court
for the Eastern District of Texas
USDC No. 1:02-CR-115-1
--------------------
Before DAVIS, EMILIO M. GARZA, and DENNIS, Circuit Judges.
PER CURIAM:*
The Federal Public Defender appointed to represent Ramon
Rivera-Torres on direct appeal has filed a motion to withdraw and
a brief pursuant to Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738, 744
(1967). Rivera-Torres has not filed a response. Our independent
review of the brief and the record discloses no nonfrivolous
issue in this direct appeal. Accordingly, the 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.
