February 21, 2002
Before JOLLY, JONES, and BENAVIDES, Circuit Judges.
PER CURIAM:*
The Federal Public Defender appointed to represent Carlos
Romero-Martinez (“Romero”) has requested leave to withdraw and
has filed a brief as required by Anders v. California, 386 U.S.
738 (1967). Romero has not responded to the motion. Our
independent review of the brief and the record discloses no
nonfrivolous issue for appeal. Counsel’s motion for leave to
withdraw is GRANTED, counsel is excused from further
responsibilities, and the appeal is 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that this opinion should not be published and is not precedent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.
