          Appeal from the United States District Court
               for the Northern District of Texas
                      USDC No. 2:98-CR-8-1
                      --------------------

                          December 16, 1999

Before JOLLY, HIGGINBOTHAM, and BARKSDALE, Circuit Judges.

PER CURIAM:*

     The Federal Public Defender appointed to represent Ronald

Cooks has moved for leave to withdraw and has filed a brief as

required by Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738 (1967).   Cooks 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.

     *
        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that this opinion should not be published and is not precedent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.
