                   Appeal from the United States District Court

                             USDC No. 2:03-CR-46-2


Before HIGGINBOTHAM, BARKSDALE, and ELROD, Circuit Judges.
PER CURIAM:*
       The Federal Public Defender appointed to represent Ricky Lewis Price has
moved for leave to withdraw and has filed a brief in accordance with Anders v.
California, 

(1967). Price has responded in a motion to appoint new
counsel.
       Our independent review of the record, counsel’s brief, and Price’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 5 TH C IR. R. 42.2. Price’s motion
for new counsel is DENIED.


       *
         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 R. 47.5, the court has determined that this opinion should not
be published and is not precedent except under the limited circumstances set forth in 5TH CIR .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.
