                            USDC No. 1:19-CR-829-1

   Before Jolly, Willett, and Engelhardt, Circuit Judges.
   Per Curiam:*
          The Federal Public Defender appointed to represent Leobardo Arrez-
   Gonzalez 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). Arrez-Gonzalez has filed a response which moves

          *
            Pursuant to 5th Circuit Rule 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   opinion should not be published and is not precedent except under the limited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 Circuit Rule 47.5.4.

                                    No. 20-40141

   for the appointment of counsel. We have reviewed counsel’s brief and the
   relevant portions of the record reflected therein, as well as Arrez-Gonzalez’s
   response. We concur with counsel’s assessment that the appeal presents no
   nonfrivolous issue for appellate review. Accordingly, 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.   Arrez-Gonzalez’s motion for the appointment of counsel is
   DENIED. See United States v. Wagner, 158 F.3d 901, 902-03 (5th Cir. 1998).
