v.

LUIS LOZA, also known as Luis Miguel Loza-Sanchez,

                                                 Defendant-Appellant


                   Appeal from the United States District Court
                        for the Western District of Texas
                             USDC No. 1:16-CR-24-3


Before JONES, DENNIS, and GRAVES, Circuit Judges.
PER CURIAM: *
       The attorney appointed to represent Luis Loza 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). Loza
has not filed a response. We have reviewed counsel’s brief and the relevant
portions of the record reflected therein. We concur with counsel’s assessment
that the appeal presents no nonfrivolous issue for appellate review.


       * 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 R. 47.5, the court has determined that this opinion should not
be published and is not precedent except under the limited circumstances set forth in 5TH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: 16-51416   Document: 00514281296    Page: 2   Date Filed: 12/20/2017


                               No. 16-51416

Accordingly, counsel’s 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. Counsel’s alternative motion for leave to withdraw and
appoint substitute counsel is DENIED as moot.
