                    Appeal from the United States District Court
                         for the Eastern District of Texas
                              USDC No. 1:09-CR-159-1

Before HIGGINBOTHAM, SMITH, and HAYNES, Circuit Judges
PER CURIAM:*
       The Federal Public Defender appointed to represent James Rustin Stewart
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). Stewart has not filed a response. We have reviewed counsel’s brief
and the relevant portions of the record reflected therein.                 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 5 TH C IR. R. 42.2.

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 R. 47.5, the court has determined that this opinion should not
be published and is not precedent except under the limited circumstances set forth in 5TH CIR .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