Opinion of the Court

PER CURIAM: *

The attorney appointed to represent Nicolas Benitez-Torres 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). Benitez-Torres has filed a response. We have reviewed counsel’s brief, Benitez-Torres’ response, and the relevant portions of the record reflected therein. We concur with counsel’s assessment that the appeal presents no nonfrivo-*336lous 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 Cíe. 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Pursuant to 5th Cir. R. 47.5, the court has determined that this opinion should not be published and is not precedent except under the limited circumstances set forth in 5th Cir. R. 47.5.4.
