United States v. Tony Watkins

Opinion

PER CURIAM: *

The attorney appointed to represent Tony Converse Watkins 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). Watkins has filed a response. We have reviewed counsel’s brief and the relevant portions of the record reflected therein, as well as Watkins’s response. We concur with counsel’s assessment that the appeal presents no non-frivolous 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. Watkins’s motions to appoint substitute counsel, take judicial notice, and compel counsel to provide a copy of the record are 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.
