Before SMITH, DENNIS, and CLEMENT, Circuit Judges.
PER CURIAM:*

Our independent review of the record, counsel’s brief, and Mendez-Flores’s
response discloses no nonfrivolous issue for appeal. Accordingly, counsel’s motion
for leave to withdraw is GRANTED, counsel is excused from further
responsibilities herein, and the APPEAL IS DISMISSED. See 5 TH C IR. R. 42.2.
