Appeal from the United States District Court
for the Northern District of Texas
USDC No. 2:02-CR-00095-1
--------------------
Before DAVIS, EMILIO M. GARZA, and DENNIS, Circuit Judges.
PER CURIAM:*
The Federal Public Defender appointed to represent Derek
Taylor on direct appeal has filed a motion to withdraw and a
brief pursuant to Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738, 744 (1967).
Taylor 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that this opinion should not be published and is not precedent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.
