United States v. Mayo

IN THE UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS FOR THE FIFTH CIRCUIT No. 01-51061 Conference Calendar UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, Plaintiff-Appellee, versus ALAN PAUL MAYO, Defendant-Appellant. -------------------- Appeal from the United States District Court for the Western District of Texas USDC No. W-97-CR-122-5 -------------------- August 20, 2002 Before HIGGINBOTHAM, DAVIS, and PARKER, Circuit Judges. PER CURIAM:* Court-appointed counsel for Alan Paul Mayo has moved for leave to withdraw and has filed a brief pursuant to Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738 (1967). Mayo received a copy of counsel’s motion and brief, and has filed a pro se response challenging his sentence. However, his sentence was not in violation of law nor plainly unreasonable. See United States v. Giddings, 37 F.3d 1091, 1093 (5th Cir. 1994). Our review of the brief filed by counsel and of the record discloses no other nonfrivolous issue for appeal. Accordingly, * 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 R. 47.5, the court has determined that this opinion should not be published and is not precedent except under the limited circumstances set forth in 5TH CIR.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. No. 01-51061 -2- the motion for leave to withdraw is GRANTED, counsel is excused from further responsibilities, and the APPEAL IS DISMISSED. See 5TH CIR. R. 42.2.
