NELSON RENE VIVERO-RAMOS,

                                                 Defendant-Appellant


                   Appeal from the United States District Court
                        for the Southern District of Texas
                             USDC No. 1:13-CR-235-1


Before JOLLY, SMITH, and CLEMENT, Circuit Judges.
PER CURIAM: *
       The Federal Public Defender appointed to represent Nelson Rene Vivero-
Ramos 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). Vivero-Ramos has not filed a response.
       Because any appeal of Vivero-Ramos’s sentence is moot, counsel’s motion
for leave to withdraw is GRANTED, counsel is excused from further


       * 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 R. 47.5, the court has determined that this opinion should not
be published and is not precedent except under the limited circumstances set forth in 5TH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.
