Charles R. Fulbruge III No. 06-40762 Clerk Conference Calendar

UNITED STATES OF AMERICA,

Plaintiff-Appellee,

versus

ENRICO HAWKINS,

Defendant-Appellant.

-------------------- Appeal from the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Texas USDC No. 1:05-CR-74-1 --------------------

Before BARKSDALE, GARZA, and CLEMENT, Circuit Judges.

PER CURIAM:*

The Federal Public Defender, appointed counsel for Enrico

Hawkins, has moved for leave to withdraw and has filed a brief in

accordance with Anders v. California,

(1967).

Hawkins has not filed a response. Our independent review of

counsel’s brief and the record 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 5TH CIR. R. 42.2. The

Government’s motion to dismiss the appeal is DENIED as moot.

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 R. 47.5, the court has determined that this opinion should not be published and is not precedent except under the limited circumstances set forth in 5TH CIR.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