Mary Patricia Jones, Assistant U.S. Attorney, Jessica Marie Podewils Thornhill, Assistant U.S. Attorney, U.S. Attorney's Office, Middle District of Louisiana, Baton Rouge, LA, for Plaintiff-Appellee Tevontae Harris, Pro Se

The Federal Public Defender appointed to represent Tevontae Harris has moved for leave to withdraw and has filed a brief in accordance with Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738, 87 S.Ct. 1396, 18 L.Ed.2d 493 (1967), and United States v. Flores, 632 F.3d 229 (5th Cir. 2011). Harris has filed a response. We have reviewed counsel's brief and the relevant portions of the record reflected therein, as well as Harris's response. 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, counsel is excused from further responsibilities herein, and the appeal is DISMISSED. See 5th Cir. R. 42.2.
