          Appeal from the United States District Court
                for the Western District of Texas
                     USDC No. 4:04-CR-269-ALL
                       --------------------

Before BARKSDALE, GARZA, and CLEMENT, Circuit Judges.

PER CURIAM:*

     Counsel appointed to represent Arturo Ochoa-Ruiz (Ochoa) has

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

with Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738 (1967).    Ochoa has not

filed a response.    Our independent review of counsel’s brief and

the record 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

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this opinion should not be published and is not precedent except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