                  Appeal from the United States District Court
                      for the Southern District of Texas
                           USDC No. 7:19-CR-842-1

   Before Wiener, Dennis, and Haynes, Circuit Judges.
   Per Curiam:*
          The Federal Public Defender appointed to represent Juan Carlos
   Escalera-Huereca 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). Escalera-Huereca has filed a response.

          *
            Pursuant to 5th Circuit Rule 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   opinion should not be published and is not precedent except under the limited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 Circuit Rule 47.5.4.
Case: 19-40832    Document: 00515945991         Page: 2   Date Filed: 07/21/2021

                                 No. 19-40832

   We have reviewed counsel’s brief and the relevant portions of the record
   reflected therein, as well as Escalera-Huereca’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.
