Before EMILIO M. GARZA, STEWART and PARKER, Circuit Judges.
PER CURIAM:*
Louis Elias Lopez, the attorney appointed to represent

a response to counsel’s motion to withdraw. Our independent
review of the brief and the record discloses no nonfrivolous
issue. Accordingly, the motion for leave to withdraw is GRANTED,
