Appeal from the United States District Court for the Northern District of Texas, USDC No. 1:04-CR-41-29.
Before BARKSDALE, GARZA, and CLEMENT, Circuit Judges.
Appellate counsel for Jerel Mathis has moved for leave to withdraw and has filed a brief in accordance with Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738, 87 S.Ct. 1396, 18 L.Ed.2d 493 (1967). Mathis has not responded. Our independent review of counsel's brief and the record 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.
