   Before Higginbotham, Stewart, and Southwick, Circuit

   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).
   Obute has filed a response. We have reviewed counsel’s brief and the
   relevant portions of the record reflected therein, as well as Obute’s response.

   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.
