counsel; we therefore decline to consider the claims without prejudice to collateral review. See United States v. Isgar, 739 F.3d 829, 841 (5th Cir. 2014).
We have reviewed counsel’s brief and the relevant portions of the record reflected therein, as well as Collinss’s responses. We concur with counsel’s assessment that the appeal presents no nonfrivolous issue for appellate review. However, we note that the judgment contains a clerical error in that it fails to identify 8 U.S.C. § 1324(a)(1)(A)(v)(II) as a violated statutory provision. The Government will not be prejudiced if the district court corrects this omission on remand.
Accordingly, the 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. The case is REMANDED to the district court for the limited purpose of correcting the judgment to include 8 U.S.C. § 1324(a)(1)(A)(v)(II) as a violated statutory provision. See Fed. R. Crim. P. 36.
