ANA LUISA COSTA,
Defendant-Appellant.

Appeal from the United States District Court
for the Southern District of Texas
USDC No. H-01-CR-884-1
--------------------
February 20, 2003
Before WIENER, EMILIO M. GARZA, and CLEMENT, Circuit Judges.
PER CURIAM:*
The court-appointed counsel for Ana Luisa Costa has moved
for leave to withdraw and has filed a brief as required by Anders
v. California, 386 U.S. 738 (1967). Costa has not filed a
response. Our independent review of the brief and the record
discloses no nonfrivolous issue in this direct 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.
*
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that this opinion should not be published and is not precedent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.
