No. 20-50085
Jones has filed a response, as well as a motion to appoint him new counsel.
We have reviewed counsel’s brief and the relevant portions of the record
reflected therein, as well as Jones’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. Jones’s motion to
appoint new counsel is DENIED. See United States v. Wagner, 158 F.3d
901, 902-03 (5th Cir. 1998).
