The attorney appointed to represent John Wayne Washington 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). Washington has filed a response. Our independent review of the record, counsel’s brief, and Washington’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 5th Cir. R. 42.2. Washington’s motions for the appointment of new counsel or to proceed pro se on appeal are DENIED.
