Before SMITH, WIENER, and OWEN, Circuit Judges.

PER CURIAM:*

     The attorney appointed to represent Rodney Dewayne Morris

The Government has moved to dismiss the appeal based on

Morris’s reply discloses no nonfrivolous issue for appeal.

Counsel’s motion for leave to withdraw is GRANTED, counsel is

appointment of new counsel is DENIED, the Government’s motion to

dismiss is DENIED, and the APPEAL IS DISMISSED.   See 5TH CIR.
