                             USDC No. 3:09-CR-512-1


Before GARZA, CLEMENT, and OWEN, Circuit Judges.
PER CURIAM:*
        The attorney appointed to represent Osvaldo Ruiz-Ramirez has moved for
leave to withdraw and has filed a brief in accordance with Anders v. California,

(1967). Ruiz-Ramirez has not filed a response. Our independent
review of the record and counsel’s brief 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 5 TH C IR. 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 R. 47.5, the court has determined that this opinion should not
be published and is not precedent except under the limited circumstances set forth in 5TH CIR .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.
