           Appeal from the United States District Court
                 for the Western District of Texas
                     USDC No. DR-01-CR-257-1-OG
                        --------------------

Before JONES, WIENER, and BENAVIDES, Circuit Judges.

PER CURIAM:*

     Court-appointed counsel for Robert E. Cook has moved for

leave to withdraw from this appeal and has filed a brief as

required by Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738 (1967).       Cook was

mailed a copy of counsel’s motion and brief but has not filed

a response.    Our independent review of the brief 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.

     *
        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that this opinion should not be published and is not precedent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.
