United States v. Bracken

Opinion

IN THE UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS FOR THE FIFTH CIRCUIT

No. 99-40892 Conference Calendar

UNITED STATES OF AMERICA,

Plaintiff-Appellee,

versus

JOHN FITZGERALD BRACKEN,

Defendant-Appellant.

-------------------- Appeal from the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Texas USDC No. 1:98-CR-208-ALL -------------------- August 22, 2000

Before KING, Chief Judge, and POLITZ and WIENER, Circuit Judges.

PER CURIAM:*

Thomas Burbank (“Burbank”), the attorney representing John

Bracken (“Bracken”), has moved for leave to withdraw and has

filed a brief as required by Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738

(1967). Bracken has not filed a response. Our independent

review of Burbank’s brief and the record discloses no

nonfrivolous issues. Accordingly, the motion for leave to

withdraw is GRANTED, counsel is excused from further

responsibilities herein, and the APPEAL IS DISMISSED.

* 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 R. 47.5, the court has determined that this opinion should not be published and is not precedent except under the limited circumstances set forth in 5TH CIR.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.
