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

    Case: 12-40637    Document: 00512272483     Page: 2   Date Filed: 06/13/2013

                                 No. 12-40637

moved 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).
Thomas has filed a response in which he moves for appointment of counsel.
      We have reviewed counsel’s brief, the relevant portions of the record
reflected therein, and Thomas’s response. We concur with counsel’s assessment
that the appeal presents no nonfrivolous issue for appellate review. Accordingly,
the motion to withdraw is GRANTED, counsel is excused from further responsi-
bilities herein, and the appeal is DISMISSED. See 5TH CIR. R. 42.2. The motion
for appointment of counsel is DENIED.
