UNITED STATES OF AMERICA,
Plaintiff-Appellee,
versus
JOSE LUIS ORTIZ,
Defendant-Appellant.
--------------------
Appeal from the United States District Court
for the Southern District of Texas
USDC No. 7:03-CR-624-2
--------------------
Before JONES, Chief Judge, and WIENER and DeMOSS, Circuit Judges.
PER CURIAM:*
Larry Chris Iles, appointed to represent Jose Luis Ortiz, has
filed a motion to withdraw and brief pursuant to Anders v.
California, 386 U.S. 738, 744 (1967). Ortiz 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.
