Before JOLLY, DENNIS, and CLEMENT, Circuit Judges.
PER CURIAM:*
The Federal Public Defender appointed to represent Ahmad
R. Muhammad has moved for leave to withdraw and has filed a brief
in accordance with Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738 (1967).
Our independent review of counsel’s brief, Muhammad’s response,
and the record discloses no nonfrivolous issue for appeal.
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
