counsel; we therefore decline to consider the claimss without prejudice to
collateral review. See United States v. Isgar,
739 F.3d 829, 841 (5th Cir. 2014).

reflected therein, as well as Romero’s response. We concur with counsel’s

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.
