No. 23-40071

Cir. 2011). Espinosa has not filed a response. We have reviewed counsel’s briefs and the relevant portions of the record reflected therein.

Espinosa filed his notice of appeal after the 14-day deadline in Federal Rule of Appellate Procedure 4(b)(1)(A)(i) but within the 30-day extension window in Rule 4(b)(4). Although we could remand the case for a good-cause determination, see United States v. Golding, 739 F.2d 183, 184 (5th Cir. 1984), the time limit is not jurisdictional, United States v. Martinez, 496 F.3d 387, 388-89 (5th Cir. 2007). Therefore, we pretermit the timeliness issue. See id.; 5th Cir. R. 42.2.

We concur with counsel’s assessment that, even if the appeal is not dismissed as untimely, 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.
