   Before Graves, Willett, and Duncan, Circuit Judges.
   Per Curiam:*
          The attorney appointed to represent Carlos Soto-Salazar 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).   Soto-Salazar has filed responses.     We have reviewed

          *
            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   opinion should not be published and is not precedent except under the limited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. 20-40237

   counsel’s brief and the relevant portions of the record reflected therein, as
   well as Soto-Salazar’s responses. 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.
