UNITED STATES OF AMERICA,
Plaintiff-Appellee
v.
ERIC BULLARD,
Defendant-Appellant

Appeal from the United States District Court
for the Western District of Louisiana
USDC No. 5:06-CR-50079-1

Before JOLLY, DENNIS, and PRADO, Circuit Judges.
PER CURIAM:*
The Federal Public Defender appointed to represent Eric Bullard 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). Bullard 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. Accordingly, counsel’s motion for leave to withdraw is GRANTED,
*

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 R. 47.5, the court has determined that this opinion should not
be published and is not precedent except under the limited circumstances set forth in 5TH CIR.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