                            USDC No. 3:03-CR-194-1

   Before Jolly, Willett, and Engelhardt, Circuit Judges.
   Per Curiam:*
          The Federal Public Defender appointed to represent Eric Wayne
   Hawkins 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). Hawkins has filed a response. We have reviewed

          *
            Pursuant to 5th Circuit Rule 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   opinion should not be published and is not precedent except under the limited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 Circuit Rule 47.5.4.

                                   No. 20-30207

   counsel’s brief and the relevant portions of the record reflected therein, as
   well as Hawkins’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.
