JOSHUA DAVID WATSON,

                                                 Defendant-Appellant

                   Appeal from the United States District Court
                        for the Northern District of Texas
                             USDC No. 3:12-CR-272-1

Before DAVIS, ELROD, and COSTA, Circuit Judges.
PER CURIAM: *
       The Federal Public Defender appointed to represent Joshua David
Watson has moved for leave to withdraw and has filed briefs in accordance
with Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738 (1967), and United States v. Flores, 632
F.3d 229 (5th Cir. 2011). Watson has not filed a response. We have reviewed
counsel’s briefs and the relevant portions of the record reflected therein. We
concur with counsel’s assessment that, even if the appeal waiver is not enforced

       * Pursuant to 5TH CIR. R. 47.5, the court has determined that this opinion should not
be published and is not precedent except under the limited circumstances set forth in 5TH
CIR. R. 47.5.4.
    Case: 13-10794      Document: 00512945548   Page: 2   Date Filed: 02/24/2015

                                 No. 13-10794

against Watson, 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.
