IN THE UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS

FOR THE FIFTH CIRCUIT

No. 14-41062

Summary Calendar

UNITED STATES OF AMERICA,

Plaintiff-Appellee

v.

CRESENCIO PEREZ,

Defendant-Appellant

Appeal from the United States District Court

for the Southern District of Texas

USDC No. 7:14-CR-569-1

Before JOLLY, DENNIS, and PRADO, Circuit Judges.

PER CURIAM:*

The Federal Public Defender appointed to represent Cresencio Perez 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). Perez has filed a response in which he challenges his conviction 

and sentence. Because the record reflects that Perez knowingly decided not to 

appeal his conviction, we will not address the issues raised in his response 

 

* Pursuant to 5TH CIR. R. 47.5, the court has determined that this opinion should not 

be published and is not precedent except under the limited circumstances set forth in 5TH 

CIR. R. 47.5.4.

related to his conviction. See United States v. Polanco-Ozorto, 772 F.3d 1053, 

1054-55 (5th Cir. 2014). We have reviewed counsel’s brief and the relevant 

portions of the record reflected therein, as well as Perez’s response to the extent 

it addresses sentencing issues. We concur with counsel’s assessment that the 

appeal presents no nonfrivolous issue for appellate review. Accordingly, 

Perez’s motion for appointment of counsel is DENIED, 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.
