No. 22-50558

Given that the statute expressly allows such a withdrawal upon providing thirty days’ written notice (which Texas did), the district court dismissed the case under 28 U.S.C. § 1915(e)(2)(B). Jackson’s appellate brief fails to demonstrate any error in this determination. We AFFIRM. Jackson’s motion for appointment of counsel is DENIED.
