Before HIGGINBOTHAM, EMILIO M. GARZA, and PRADO, Circuit Judges.

PER CURIAM:*

     Court-appointed counsel for Joseph Edward McKenzie

(“McKenzie”) has requested leave to withdraw from this appeal and

has filed a brief as required by Anders v. California, 386 U.S.

738 (1967).    McKenzie has received a copy of counsel’s motion and

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

the brief and the record discloses no nonfrivolous issues for

appeal.   Counsel’s motion for leave to withdraw is GRANTED,

     *
        Pursuant to 5TH CIR. R. 47.5, the court has determined
that this opinion should not be published and is not precedent

R. 47.5.4.

is DISMISSED.   See 5TH CIR. R. 42.2.
