                   Appeal from the United States District Court
                        for the Southern District of Texas
                             USDC No. 1:11-CR-577-1

Before DAVIS, STEWART, and PRADO, Circuit Judges.
PER CURIAM:*
        The Federal Public Defender appointed to represent Edgar Hernan
Salmeron-Luna 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). Salmeron-Luna has filed a response. We
have reviewed counsel’s brief and the relevant portions of the record reflected
therein, as well as Salmeron-Luna’s response.                We concur with counsel’s
assessment that the appeal presents no nonfrivolous issue for appellate review.

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 R. 47.5, the court has determined that this opinion should not
be published and is not precedent except under the limited circumstances set forth in 5TH CIR.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

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. Salmeron-Luna’s motion for appointment of new appellate
counsel is DENIED.
