USDC No. 6:18-CR-58-1
Before CLEMENT, GRAVES, and OLDHAM, Circuit Judges.
PER CURIAM: *
The Federal Public Defender appointed to represent Miguel Fernandez-
Matos 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). Fernandez-Matos has not filed a response. We have
reviewed counsel’s brief and the relevant portions of the record reflected
therein. While counsel’s compliance with our Anders directive is barely
* 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 R. 47.5, the court has determined that this opinion should not
be published and is not precedent except under the limited circumstances set forth in 5TH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.

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.
