USDC No. 2:03-CR-55
Before HIGGINBOTHAM, JONES, and HIGGINSON, Circuit Judges.
PER CURIAM: *
The Federal Public Defender appointed to represent Adan Salas 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,

collateral review. See United States v. Isgar,
739 F.3d 829, 841 (5th Cir.), cert.
denied,
135 S. Ct. 123 (2014).
We have reviewed counsel’s brief and the relevant portions of the record
reflected therein, as well as Salas’s response. We concur with counsel’s
assessment that the appeal presents no nonfrivolous issue for appellate review.
Accordingly, the 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.
