No. 14-40222

Cir. 2014). In the letter, Yepez-Rosas’s attorney states that he has 

communicated all relevant information to the defendant in Spanish. YepezRosas has not filed a response. We have reviewed counsel’s brief and the 

relevant portions of the record reflected therein. We concur with counsel’s 

assessment that the appeal presents no nonfrivolous issue for appellate review. 

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.
