No. 16-40873
Espinosa 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). Silva-Espinosa has not filed a response. We have
reviewed counsel’s brief and the relevant portions of the record. We concur
with counsel’s assessment that the appeal presents no nonfrivolous issue for
appellate review.
The motion for leave to withdraw is GRANTED, counsel is excused from
further responsibilities herein, and the appeal is DISMISSED.
