                      Appeal from the United States District Court
                          for the Southern District of Texas
                               USDC No. 4:22-CR-224-1
                      ______________________________

   Before Smith, Higginson, and Engelhardt, Circuit Judges.
   Per Curiam:*
          The Federal Public Defender appointed to represent David Penaloza-
   Nieto has moved to withdraw and has filed a brief per Anders v. California,
   386 U.S. 738 (1967), and United States v. Flores, 632 F.3d 229 (5th Cir. 2011).
   Penaloza-Nieto has not filed a response.
          We have reviewed counsel’s brief and relevant portions of the record.

                                   No. 22-20628

   We concur with counsel’s assessment that the appeal presents no non-
   frivolous issue for appellate review. Accordingly, the motion to withdraw is
   GRANTED, counsel is excused from further responsibilities herein, and
   the appeal is DISMISSED. See 5th Cir. R. 42.2.
