                               No. 23-50101

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. Franklin’s motion for the appointment of new counsel is DENIED
as untimely. See United States v. Wagner, 158 F.3d 901, 902-03 (5th Cir.
1998).
