   reviewed counsel’s brief and the relevant portions of the record reflected
   therein, as well as Mendoza-Hernandez’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.
