No. 19-51010

in violation of 18 U.S.C. § 924(c); and (iii) being a felon in possession of a firearm in violation of 18 U.S.C. §§ 922(g)(1) and 924(e). The district court granted his motion in part—resentencing Jordan on account of his felon-in- possession conviction—and denied his motion in part. The district court further granted Jordan a certificate of appealability on the aspects of his § 2255 motion to which the court denied relief.

The Federal Public Defender appointed to represent Jordan 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). Jordan has not filed a response. We have reviewed counsel’s brief and the relevant portions of the record reflected therein. We concur with counsel’s assessment that the appeal presents no nonfrivolous 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.
