United States Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit ____________ United States Court of Appeals Fifth Circuit
No. 24-30006 FILED January 8, 2025 Summary Calendar ____________ Lyle W. Cayce Clerk United States of America, Plaintiff—Appellee, versus Marco Antonio Filos, Defendant—Appellant. ______________________________ Appeal from the United States District Court for the Middle District of Louisiana USDC No. 3:22-CR-68-4 ______________________________ Before Smith, Stewart, and Duncan, Circuit Judges.
Per Curiam: * The attorney appointed to represent Marco Filos moves to withdraw and has filed a brief per Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738 (1967), and United States v. Flores, 632 F.3d 229 (5th Cir. 2011). Filos has filed a response.

decline to consider the claims, without prejudice to collateral review. See United States v. Isgar, 739 F.3d 829, 841 (5th Cir. 2014). Moreover, Filos’s challenges to his sentence are barred by his valid appellate waiver. See United States v. McKinney, 406 F.3d 744, 746 (5th Cir. 2005); United States v. Baty, 980 F.2d 977, 979 (5th Cir. 1992).
We have reviewed counsel’s brief, relevant portions of the record, and Filos’s response. We concur with counsel’s assessment that the appeal pre- sents no nonfrivolous issue for appellate review. Accordingly, the motion to withdraw is GRANTED, counsel is excused from further responsibilities herein, and the appeal is DISMISSED. See 5th Cir. R. 42.2.
