UNITED STATES OF AMERICA,
Plaintiff-Appellee
v.
ANDRES HERRERA-MENDOZA,
Defendant-Appellant
Appeal from the United States District Court
for the Southern District of Texas
USDC No. 1:10-CR-1106-1
Before KING, HAYNES, and GRAVES, Circuit Judges.
PER CURIAM:*
The Federal Public Defender appointed to represent Andres Herrera-
Mendoza 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). Herrera-Mendoza has been removed from the United
States and 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.
*
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 R. 47.5, the court has determined that this opinion should not
be published and is not precedent except under the limited circumstances set forth in 5TH CIR.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.
