                   Appeal from the United States District Court
                        for the Southern District of Texas
                             USDC No. 5:10-CR-994-1

Before DAVIS, STEWART, and PRADO, Circuit Judges.
PER CURIAM:*
        The attorney appointed to represent Guadalupe Cruz-Garcia 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). Cruz-Garcia has filed a response. We have reviewed counsel’s brief
and the relevant portions of the record reflected therein, as well as Cruz-Garcia’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. Cruz-Garcia’s
motion for appointment of new counsel is DENIED.

       *
         Pursuant to 5TH CIR. R. 47.5, the court has determined that this opinion should not
be published and is not precedent except under the limited circumstances set forth in 5TH CIR.
R. 47.5.4.
