IN THE UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS
FOR THE FIFTH CIRCUIT
United States Court of Appeals
No. 16-30509
Fifth Circuit
FILED
Summary Calendar December 15, 2016
Lyle W. Cayce
UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, Clerk
Plaintiff–Appellee,
v.
KIRK JENKINS, also known as Pimp Jenkins,
Defendant–Appellant.
Appeal from the United States District Court
for the Eastern District of Louisiana
USDC No. 2:13-CR-74-1
Before REAVLEY, OWEN, and ELROD, Circuit Judges.
PER CURIAM: *
The attorney appointed to represent Kirk Jenkins 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).
Jenkins has not filed a response. We have reviewed counsel’s brief and the
relevant portions of the record reflected therein. Though counsel does not
specifically address the validity of the appeal waiver in Jenkins’s plea
* 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 R. 47.5, the court has determined that this opinion should not
be published and is not precedent except under the limited circumstances set forth in 5TH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.

agreement, there is no indication in the record that Jenkins’s ratification of the
plea agreement was anything but knowing and voluntary. As such, 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, counsel is excused from further responsibilities herein, and the
APPEAL IS DISMISSED in part as frivolous, see 5TH CIR. R. 42.2, and in part
as moot based on Jenkins’s completion of his term of imprisonment, see United
States v. Heredia-Holguin,
823 F.3d 337, 340-42 (5th Cir. 2016).
