                        for the Southern District of Texas
                             USDC No. 2:11-CR-1179-1
                             USDC No. 2:12-CR-241-1


Before KING, CLEMENT, and HAYNES, Circuit Judges.
PER CURIAM:*
       The Federal Public Defender appointed to represent Salamon Rios-
Hernandez 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). Rios-Hernandez has not filed a response. We have
reviewed counsel’s brief and the relevant portions of the record reflected therein.


       *
         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 R. 47.5, the court has determined that this opinion should not
be published and is not precedent except under the limited circumstances set forth in 5TH CIR.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.
    Case: 12-40619    Document: 00512147020    Page: 2   Date Filed: 02/19/2013

                                No. 12-40619
                              c/w No. 12-40644

We concur with counsel’s assessment that the appeals present 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
APPEALS ARE DISMISSED. See 5TH CIR. R. 42.2.
