UNITED STATES OF AMERICA,

Plaintiff-Appellee,

versus

ABELARDO MENDOZA,

Defendant-Appellant.

-------------------- Appeal from the United States District Court for the Western District of Texas USDC No. 7:04-CR-52-1 --------------------

Before BARKSDALE, GARZA, and CLEMENT, Circuit Judges.

PER CURIAM:*

The attorney appointed to represent Abelardo Mendoza on

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

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

has responded to counsel’s motion. Our independent review of the

brief, the record, and Mendoza’s response 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.

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 R. 47.5, the court has determined that this opinion should not be published and is not precedent except under the limited circumstances set forth in 5TH CIR.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