Before JONES, Chief Judge, and JOLLY and ELROD, Circuit Judges.

PER CURIAM:[*]

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 R. 47.5, the court has determined that this opinion should not be published and is not precedent except under the limited circumstances set forth in 5TH CIR.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

The Federal Public Defender appointed to represent Rodrigo Mendoza has moved for leave to withdraw and has filed a brief in accordance with Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738
(1967). Mendoza has not filed a response. Our independent review of the record and counsel’s brief discloses no non-frivolous issue for appeal. 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.
