                                  No. 21-40068

   a response. We have reviewed counsel’s brief and the relevant portions of
   the record reflected therein, as well as Medellin-Armendariz’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.
