Before DeMOSS, PARKER, and DENNIS, Circuit Judges.
PER CURIAM:*
The Federal Public Defender appointed to represent David W.
Elser has moved for leave to withdraw and has filed a brief as
required by Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738 (1967). Elser has
filed a response. Our independent review of the brief, Elser's
response, and the record discloses no nonfrivolous issue.
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. Elser's motion for
appointment of substitute counsel is DENIED.

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this opinion should not be published and is not precedent except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