                   Appeal from the United States District Court
                        for the Southern District of Texas
                             USDC No. 4:97-CR-36-3

Before BENAVIDES, DENNIS, and SOUTHWICK, Circuit Judges.
PER CURIAM:*
        The attorney appointed to represent Bobby Joe Burton, Jr., 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).
Burton has filed a response. We have reviewed counsel’s brief and the relevant
portions of the record reflected therein, as well as Burton’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.

        *
         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 R. 47.5, the court has determined that this opinion should not
be published and is not precedent except under the limited circumstances set forth in 5TH CIR.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.
