Before SMITH, BENAVIDES, and HAYNES, Circuit Judges.
PER CURIAM:*
       The Federal Public Defender appointed to represent Guadalupe
Fernandez-Pena (Fernandez) has moved for leave to withdraw and has filed a
brief in accordance with Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738 (1967). Fernandez
has not filed a response. Our independent review of the record and counsel’s
brief 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 APPEALS ARE DISMISSED. See 5 TH C IR. R. 42.2.

       *
         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 R. 47.5, the court has determined that this opinion should not
be published and is not precedent except under the limited circumstances set forth in 5TH CIR .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.
