    Case: 16-40866    Document: 00513884888     Page: 2   Date Filed: 02/22/2017

                                 No. 16-40866

unauthorized appellate brief, which we construe as a motion for leave to file an
out-of-time response and GRANT.
      We have reviewed counsel’s brief and the relevant portions of the record
reflected therein, as well as Imboden-Vallejo’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.
