Before CLEMENT, GRAVES, and OLDHAM, Circuit Judges.

(1967), and United States v. Flores,

       * Pursuant to 5TH CIR. R. 47.5, the court has determined that this opinion should not

We concur with counsel’s assessment that the appeal presents no nonfrivolous

is GRANTED, counsel is excused from further responsibilities herein,
Kariuki’s motion for leave to file an addendum is DENIED, and the APPEAL
IS DISMISSED. See 5TH CIR. R. 42.2.
