UNITED STATES OF AMERICA,
Plaintiff-Appellee,
versus
JAMES MICHAEL TAYLOR, JR.,
Defendant-Appellant.
--------------------
Appeal from the United States District Court
for the Southern District of Texas
USDC No. B-03-CR-465-1
--------------------
Before BARKSDALE, DeMOSS, and CLEMENT, Circuit Judges.
PER CURIAM:*
The Federal Public Defender appointed to represent James
Michael Taylor, Jr., has moved for leave to withdraw from this
direct appeal and has filed a brief as required by Anders v.
California, 386 U.S. 738 (1967). Taylor has received 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 in this 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.
