Appeal from the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Texas USDC No. 4:15-CR-195-5

Before JOLLY, OWEN, and HAYNES, Circuit Judges.

PER CURIAM: * The attorney appointed to represent Crisoforo Palencia 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).

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 R. 47.5, the court has determined that this opinion should not be published and is not precedent except under the limited circumstances set forth in 5TH CIR.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