Opinion

IN THE UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS FOR THE FIFTH CIRCUIT

No. 01-30014 Conference Calendar

UNITED STATES OF AMERICA,

Plaintiff-Appellee,

versus

JESSE TATE,

Defendant-Appellant.

-------------------- Appeal from the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Louisiana USDC No. 00-CR-153-ALL-J -------------------- October 29, 2001

Before WIENER, BENAVIDES, and DENNIS, Circuit Judges.

PER CURIAM:*

The Federal Public Defender appointed to represent Jesse

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

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

received a copy of counsel’s motion and brief, but 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 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 R. 47.5, the court has determined that this opinion should not be published and is not precedent except under the limited circumstances set forth in 5TH CIR.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.
