                             June 17, 1999

Before EMILIO M. GARZA, BENAVIDES, and PARKER, Circuit Judges.

PER CURIAM:*

     The federal public defender (FPD) appointed to represent

Angelo Jackson has moved for leave to withdraw and has filed a

brief as required by Anders v. California, 

(1967).

Jackson has responded arguing that the district court erred in

denying his motion to suppress and in sentencing him based on

crack cocaine.    Our independent review of counsel’s brief,

Jackson’s response, and the record discloses no nonfrivolous

issue.   Accordingly, the motion for leave to withdraw is GRANTED,




     *
        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that this opinion should not be published and is not precedent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. 98-41173
                                -2-

counsel is excused from further responsibilities herein, and the

APPEAL IS DISMISSED.   See 5TH CIR. R. 42.2.
