new counsel. We have reviewed counsel’s brief and the relevant portions of the
record reflected therein, as well as Duncan’s response.                 We concur with

       * Pursuant to 5TH CIR. R. 47.5, the court has determined that this opinion should not

                                No. 13-20524

counsel’s assessment that the appeal presents no nonfrivolous issue for
appellate review.    Accordingly, counsel’s motion for leave to withdraw is
GRANTED, and counsel is excused from further responsibilities herein.
Duncan’s motion for the appointment of counsel is DENIED as untimely. See
United States v. Wagner, 158 F.3d 901, 902-03 (5th Cir. 1998). The APPEAL
IS DISMISSED. See 5TH CIR. R. 42.2.
