                           USDC No. 4:19-CR-377-1

   Before Smith, Stewart, and Higginson, Circuit Judges.
   Per Curiam:*
          The attorney appointed to represent Kevin Raheem Penn has moved
   for leave to withdraw and has filed a brief and supplemental brief in
   accordance with Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738 (1967), and United States
   v. Flores, 632 F.3d 229 (5th Cir. 2011). Penn has filed responses. We have

          *
            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   opinion should not be published and is not precedent except under the limited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.

                                  No. 19-20846

   reviewed counsel’s briefs and the relevant parts of the record reflected
   therein, as well as Penn’s responses. We concur with counsel’s assessment
   that the appeal presents no nonfrivolous issue for appellate review.
   Accordingly, Penn’s motions to appoint new counsel and to hold the case in
   abeyance are both DENIED; 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.
