                   Appeal from the United States District Court
                        for the Western District of Texas
                            USDC No. 3:18-CR-2040-1

Before HIGGINSON, COSTA, and HO, Circuit Judges.
PER CURIAM: *
       The Federal Public Defender appointed to represent Alejandro Herrera-
Alcaras 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). Herrera-Alcaras has filed a response. We have
reviewed counsel’s brief and the relevant portions of the record reflected

       * 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 R. 47.5, the court has determined that this opinion should not
be published and is not precedent except under the limited circumstances set forth in 5TH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: 18-50905    Document: 00514966079    Page: 2   Date Filed: 05/21/2019

                                No. 18-50905

therein, as well as Herrera-Alcaras’s response.     We concur with counsel’s
assessment that the appeal presents no nonfrivolous issue for appellate review.
Accordingly, Herrera-Alcaras’s motion to proceed pro se is DENIED, 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.
