Case: 19-11239     Document: 00515634031          Page: 2   Date Filed: 11/10/2020

                                   No. 19-11239

   (5th Cir. 2011). Amaya-Alvarez has filed a response. We have reviewed
   counsel’s brief and the relevant portions of the record, as well as Amaya-
   Alvarez’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.
