PER CURIAM:*

The attorney appointed to represent Ronzell Mitchell has moved for 

leave to withdraw and has filed a brief in accordance with Anders v. California, 

386 U.S. 738 (1967), and United States v. Flores, 632 F.3d 229 (5th Cir. 2011).

collateral review. See United States v. Isgar, 739 F.3d 829, 841 (5th Cir.), 

cert. denied, 135 S. Ct. 123 (2014).

We have reviewed counsel’s brief and the relevant portions of the record 

reflected therein, as well as Mitchell’s response. We concur with counsel’s 

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

Accordingly, the motion for leave to withdraw is GRANTED, counsel is excused 

from further responsibilities herein, Mitchell’s motions for appointment of new 

counsel and to strike counsel’s Anders brief are DENIED, and the APPEAL IS 

DISMISSED. See 5TH CIR. R. 42.2.
