v.
JOSE ELIAS SALINAS,
Defendant-Appellant
Appeal from the United States District Court
for the Eastern District of Texas
USDC No. 1:08-CR-164-5
Before BENAVIDES, STEWART, and CLEMENT, Circuit Judges.
PER CURIAM:*
The attorney appointed to represent Jose Elias Salinas 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).
Salinas 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, counsel is
excused from further responsibilities herein, and the APPEAL IS DISMISSED.
See 5TH CIR. R. 42.2.

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 R. 47.5, the court has determined that this opinion should not
be published and is not precedent except under the limited circumstances set forth in 5TH CIR.
