PER CURIAM:*

Appointed counsel for Jesus Ramirez-Cadena (Ramirez) has

requested leave to withdraw and has filed a brief as required by

a response. Our independent review of the record and counsel’s

brief discloses no nonfrivolous issue for appeal. Counsel’s

motion for leave to withdraw is GRANTED, counsel is excused from

further responsibilities, and the APPEAL IS DISMISSED. See 5TH

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 R. 47.5, the court has determined that this opinion should not be published and is not precedent except under the limited circumstances set forth in 5TH CIR.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