UNITED STATES of America, Plaintiff-Appellee v. Michael Victor NEWSOM, Defendant-Appellant.
    No. 05-50397
    Summary Calendar.
    United States Court of Appeals, Fifth Circuit.
    Sept. 6, 2007.
    Joseph H. Gay, Jr., Assistant U.S. Attorney, U.S. Attorney’s Office, Western District of Texas, San Antonio, TX, for Plaintiff-Appellee.
    Steven Gregory White, Naman, Howell, Smith & Lee, Waco, TX, Michael Victor Newsom, Federal Medical Center Fort Worth, Fort Worth, TX, for Defendant-Appellant.
    Before JOLLY, DENNIS, and PRADO, Circuit Judges.
   PER CURIAM:

The attorney appointed to represent Michael Victor Newsom has moved for leave to withdraw and has filed a brief in accordance with Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738, 87 S.Ct. 1396, 18 L.Ed.2d 493 (1967). Newsom has filed a response. Our independent review of the record, counsel’s brief, and Newsom’s response discloses no non-frivolous 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. Newsom’s motion for the appointment of substitute counsel is DENIED. 
      
       Pursuant to 5th Cir. R. 47.5, the court has determined that this opinion should not be published and is not precedent except under the limited circumstances set forth in 5th Cir. R. 47.5.4.
