                Appeal from the United States District
                   for the Western District of Texas
                       USDC No. 6:05-CR-12-ALL
                          --------------------

Before JONES, Chief Judge, and JOLLY and DAVIS, Circuit Judges.

PER CURIAM:*

     The attorney appointed to represent Gabriel Benitez-

Villafuerte has moved for leave to withdraw and has filed a brief

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

Benitez-Villafuerte has not filed a response to counsel’s motion.

Our independent review of the brief and the record discloses no

nonfrivolous issues 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.

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this opinion should not be published and is not precedent except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