USDC No. 99-CR-363-1-ALL

Before HIGGINBOTHAM, DAVIS, and PICKERING, Circuit Judges.
PER CURIAM:*
The Federal Public Defender representing Ryan Williams has
moved to withdraw and has filed a brief as required by Anders v.
California, 386 U.S. 738 (1967). Williams has not filed a
response. Our independent review of the brief and record
discloses no nonfrivolous issue. 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this opinion should not be published and is not precedent except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.
