The attorney appointed to represent Joseph Cleveland Thibodeaux has moved for leave to withdraw and has filed a brief in accordance with Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738, 87 S.Ct. 1396, 18 L.Ed.2d 493 (1967). Thibodeaux filed a response and has moved for the appointment of substitute counsel. Our independent review of counsel’s brief, Thibodeaux’s response, 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 motion for the appointment of substitute counsel is DENIED.
