Defendant-Appellant
Appeal from the United States District Court
for the Northern District of Texas
USDC No. 2:05-CR-4-ALL
Before WIENER, GARZA, and PRADO, Circuit Judges.
PER CURIAM:*
The Federal Public Defender appointed to represent Nathan Reyes has
moved for leave to withdraw and has filed an amended brief in accordance with
Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738 (1967). Reyes has filed a response in which
he claims, inter alia, that his trial counsel was ineffective for failing to move for
a judgment of acquittal.
*
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 R. 47.5, the court has determined that this opinion should not
be published and is not precedent except under the limited circumstances set forth in 5TH CIR.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.
No. 05-10723
Our independent review of the record, counsel’s brief, and Reyes’s response
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. See 5TH CIR. R. 42.2.
