The attorney appointed to represent Juwan James Davis 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). Davis has filed a response. We have reviewed counsel’s brief and the relevant portions of the record reflected therein, as well as Davis’s Case: 23-20553 Document: 87-1 Page: 2 Date Filed: 11/21/2024

No. 23-20553 response. 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. Additionally, Davis’s motion for the appointment of new counsel is DENIED as untimely. See United States v. Wagner, 158 F.3d 901, 902-03 (5th Cir. 1998).
