Cir. 2011). Guzman-Sanchez has filed a response, seeking appointment of
counsel to assist with his appeal. We have reviewed counsel’s brief and the
relevant portions of the record reflected therein, as well as Guzman-Sanchez’s


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 R. 47.5, the court has determined that this opinion should not
be published and is not precedent except under the limited circumstances set forth in 5TH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

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. See 5TH CIR. R. 42.2. Guzman-
Sanchez’s motion for appointment of new counsel is DENIED.
