    Conference Calendar.
    United States Court of Appeals, Fifth Circuit.
    Nov. 8, 2007.
    James Lee Turner, Assistant U.S. Attorney, U.S. Attorney’s Office, Southern District of Texas, Houston, TX, for PlaintiffAppellee.
    Robert Jackson Herrington, Plano, TX, for Defendant-Appellant.
    
      Before KING, BARKSDALE, and DENNIS, Circuit Judges.
   PER CURIAM:

The Federal Public Defender appointed to represent Margarito Elias (Elias) 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). Elias has been deported and has not filed a response to counsel’s motion. Our independent review of the record and counsel’s brief discloses no nonfi’ivolous 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 in part as frivolous, see 5th Cir. R. 42.2, and in part 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       Pursuant to 5th Cir. R. 47.5, the court has determined that this opinion should not be published and is not precedent except under the limited circumstances set forth in 5th Cir. R. 47.5.4.
