JOHN DAVIS,

Defendant-Appellant.

-------------------- Appeal from the United States District Court for the Southern District of Texas USDC No. H-01-CR-263-1 -------------------- December 12, 2002

Before JOLLY, JONES, and CLEMENT, Circuit Judges.

PER CURIAM:*

Appointed counsel for John Davis has requested leave to

withdraw as counsel and has filed a brief in accordance with

Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738 (1967). Davis has not filed a

response. Our independent review of the brief and the record

discloses no nonfrivolous issue. Accordingly, counsel’s motion

for leave to withdraw is GRANTED, counsel is excused from further

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 R. 47.5, the court has determined that this opinion should not be published and is not precedent except under the limited circumstances set forth in 5TH CIR.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