UNITED STATES OF AMERICA,

Plaintiff-Appellee,

versus

DANNY ODELL OWENS,

Defendant-Appellant.

-------------------- Appeal from the United States District Court for the Southern District of Texas USDC No. H-02-CR-307-2 --------------------

Before JONES, WIENER, and BENAVIDES, Circuit Judges.

PER CURIAM:*

Counsel appointed to represent Danny Odell Owens has filed a

motion for leave to withdraw and has filed a brief as required by

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

response. Our independent review of the brief and the record

discloses no nonfrivolous issue in this direct 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 R. 47.5, the court has determined that this opinion should not be published and is not precedent except under the limited circumstances set forth in 5TH CIR.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.
