   Before Davis, Willett, and Oldham, Circuit Judges.
   Per Curiam: *
          The Federal Public Defender appointed to represent Edward Kristek
   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). Kristek has filed a response. We have reviewed
   counsel’s brief and the relevant portions of the record reflected therein, as

          _____________________

                                 No. 23-20370

   well as Kristek’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.
