Before SMITH, DeMOSS, and PARKER, Circuit Judges.

PER CURIAM:*

     The Federal Public Defender (“FPD”) representing Ralph Kent

Matteson has moved for leave to withdraw and has filed a brief in

accordance with Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738 (1967).

Matteson was provided with a copy of the FPD's Anders motion and

brief and has not filed a response.   Our independent review of

the record and the FPD's brief shows that there are no

nonfrivolous issues for appeal.

     The Federal Public Defender's motion for leave to withdraw

is GRANTED, the FPD is excused from further responsibilities
