                                                  Defendant-Appellant


                   Appeal from the United States District Court
                        for the Southern District of Texas
                            USDC No. 1:10-CR-1224-1


Before BENAVIDES, DENNIS, and SOUTHWICK, Circuit Judges.
PER CURIAM:*
        The Federal Public Defender appointed to represent Ismael Tapia-Cerda
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). Tapia-Cerda has not filed a response. We have reviewed counsel’s
brief and the relevant portions of the record reflected therein. 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,

       *
         Pursuant to 5TH CIR. R. 47.5, the court has determined that this opinion should not
be published and is not precedent except under the limited circumstances set forth in 5TH CIR.
R. 47.5.4.

DISMISSED. See 5TH CIR. R. 42.2.
