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

record reflected therein. We concur with counsel’s assessment that Aranda 

Soto’s appeal of his conviction presents no nonfrivolous issue. Accordingly, 

counsel’s motion for leave to withdraw is GRANTED, counsel is excused from 

further responsibilities herein, and the APPEAL IS DISMISSED in part as 

frivolous, see 5TH CIR. R. 42.2, and in part as moot, see United States v. 

Rosenbaum-Alanis, 483 F.3d 381, 382-83 (5th Cir. 2007).
