United States v. Melgoza-Arredondo

Opinion of the Court

PER CURIAM: *

The attorney appointed to represent Ismael Melgoza-Arredondo has moved for leave to withdraw and has filed a brief in accordance with Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738, 87 S.Ct. 1396, 18 L.Ed.2d 493 (1967), and United States v. Flores, 632 F.3d 229 (5th Cir. 2011). Melgoza-Arre-dondo has filed a response. We have reviewed counsel’s brief and the relevant portions of the record reflected therein, as well as Melgoza-Arredondo’s response. We concur with counsel’s assessment that *353the appeal presents no nonfrivolous issue for appellate review because the defendant validly agreed to waive appeal. 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.

Pursuant to 5th Cir. R. 47.5, the court has determined that this opinion should not be published and is not precedent except under the limited circumstances set forth in 5th Cir. R. 47.5.4.
