Defendant-Appellant.

-------------------- Appeal from the United States District Court for the Western District of Louisiana (00-CR-10007-2) -------------------- June 18, 2001

Before HIGGINBOTHAM, WIENER, and BARKSDALE, Circuit Judges.

PER CURIAM:*

The attorney appointed to represent Nelson L. King, Jr., on

appeal has moved for leave to withdraw as counsel and has filed a

brief as required by Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738 (1967).

King has not filed a response to counsel's motion and brief.

Our independent review of 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. 5th Cir. R.
