USDC No. 2:09-CR-541-1
Before HIGGINBOTHAM, SMITH, and HAYNES, Circuit Judges.

Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738 (1967). Villanueva-Galvan has not filed a
response. Our independent review of the record and counsel’s brief 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 5 TH C IR. R. 42.2.
