Opinion of the Court
PER CURIAM:

PER CURIAM:

The appellant was convicted by a jury of interstate transportation of a stolen motor vehicle, a violation of 18 U.S.C. § 2312. After sentencing, the appellant’s court-appointed attorney filed a notice of appeal in his behalf, but now moves this Court to relieve him as appellate counsel on grounds that the appeal is frivolous. In compliance with Anders v. California, 1967, 386 U.S. 738, 87 S.Ct. 1396, 18 L.Ed.2d 493, counsel has supplemented his motion with a brief. Therein he states that after a conscientious examination of the record, he can find no issue which might arguably support the appeal. The appellant himself has been advised of his right to respond to counsel’s motion by raising any points he claims are appealable. He has failed to submit any such reply.

We have carefully ■ reviewed the entire record in this case and find no arguable merit in the appeal. We, therefore, dismiss the appeal under Local Rule 18, and grant counsel’s motion to withdraw. See United States v. Minor, 5th Cir. 1971, 444 F. 2d 521; Lemus v. Government of Canal Zone, 5th Cir. 1971, 443 F. 2d 23.
