United States of America,

                                                                    Plaintiff—Appellee,

                   Appeal from the United States District Court

                             USDC No. 6:22-CR-23-1
                   ______________________________

Before King, Haynes, and Graves, Circuit Judges.
Per Curiam:*
       The attorney appointed to represent Robert Nathan Roger 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). Roger has filed two responses. We have reviewed counsel’s brief
and the relevant portions of the record reflected therein, as well as Roger’s

                               No. 23-10816

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.   Roger’s motion for the appointment of substitute counsel is
DENIED as untimely. See United States v. Wagner, 158 F.3d 901, 902–03
(5th Cir. 1998).
