USDC No. 4:13-CR-8-1

Before DAVIS, ELROD, and COSTA, Circuit Judges.

PER CURIAM:*

The Federal Public Defender appointed to represent Omar Loya has 

moved for leave to withdraw and has filed a brief in accordance with Anders v.

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 Loya’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, and the APPEAL IS DISMISSED. See

5TH CIR. R. 42.2.
