Melendez 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). Martinez-Melendez has filed a response. We have 

reviewed counsel’s brief, relevant portions of the record reflected therein, and

Martinez-Melendez’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. Martinez-Melendez’s 

motions for a stay and for the appointment of new counsel are DENIED.
