IN THE UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS FOR THE FIFTH CIRCUIT

No. 01-50485 Summary Calendar

UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, Plaintiff-Appellee, versus

DARREL RAY METCALF, Defendant-Appellant.

-------------------- Appeal from the United States District Court for the Western District of Texas (W-88-CR-125-1) -------------------- December 26, 2001 Before HIGGINBOTHAM, WIENER, and BARKSDALE, Circuit Judges.

PER CURIAM:* Counsel appointed to represent Defendant-Appellant Darrel Ray Metcalf has moved for leave to withdraw and has filed a brief pursuant to Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738 (1967). Metcalf has received a copy of counsel’s motion and brief, but he has not filed a pro se brief of his own. Our review of the brief filed by counsel and of the record discloses no nonfrivolous point for appeal. Accordingly, the motion for leave to withdraw is GRANTED, counsel is excused from further responsibilities, and the APPEAL IS DISMISSED. See 5TH CIR. 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 R. 47.5, the court has determined that this opinion should not be published and is not precedent except under the limited circumstances set forth in 5TH CIR.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.
