Before SMITH, BARKSDALE, and PARKER, Circuit Judges.
PER CURIAM:*
The Federal Public Defender, appointed to represent Eduardo
Ramirez, has filed a motion to withdraw and a brief as required by
Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738 (1967), to which Ramirez has
responded. Our independent review of the record discloses no
nonfrivolous issue for appeal. Accordingly, the 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.
DISMISSED

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opinion should not be published and is not precedent except under the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.
