George W. Lindberg, Judge.
FAYEZ ALBURAY,
Defendant-Appellant.
ORDER
Fayez Alburay is serving a fifty-one-month sentence on account of a food
stamp scam to which he pleaded guilty. Alburay appealed his sentence, and, after
considering several arguments, we remanded the case with two specific and narrow
instructions. See United States v. Alburay, 415 F.3d 782, 785-90 (7th Cir. 2005).
First, we instructed the district court to replace certain supervised release language

This successive appeal has been submitted to the original panel pursuant to Operating
Procedure 6(b). After reviewing the briefs and the record, the panel is unanimously of the view
that oral argument is unnecessary. Accordingly, the appeal has been submitted on the briefs and
the record alone. See Fed. R. App. P. 34(a).

in its judgment with a single, explicit sentence: “If deported, you are ordered not to
re-enter the United States without the express written permission of the Attorney
General of the United States.” Id. at 787-88. Second, we instructed the district court
to correct its initial restitution figure to the stated amount of $1,725,000. See id. at
789. We affirmed in all other respects.
The district court’s corrected judgment fully complied with our instructions.
Nevertheless, Alburay has lodged another appeal to his sentence. In this successive
appeal, however, his appointed counsel has moved to withdraw, citing a lack of a
nonfrivolous basis for the appeal. See Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738 (1967). We
invited Alburay to respond, but he elected not to do so.
Again, the district court complied with our two corrective instructions
completely. Any challenge to this compliance would thus be frivolous. Further,
counsel correctly states that the scope of our remand was expressly limited to these
two narrow and unambiguous instructions, and any challenge to the scope of the
remand would also be frivolous. Moreover, other possible arguments for this appeal
were either conclusively decided by this court in the first appeal or waived as a
result of not being raised in the first appeal. See United States v. Husband, 312 F.3d
247, 250-51 (7th Cir. 2002). As a result, raising such arguments beyond the scope of
the remand would likewise be frivolous.
Accordingly, counsel’s motion to withdraw is GRANTED, and the appeal is
DISMISSED.
