    UNITED STATES of America, Plaintiff-Appellee v. Benito MARTINEZ-IPINA, Defendant-Appellant
    No. 17-40382 Summary Calendar
    United States Court of Appeals, Fifth Circuit.
    Filed November 16, 2017
    Carmen Castillo Mitchell, Assistant U.S. Attorney, U.S. Attorney’s Office, Southern District of Texas, Houston, TX, for Plaintiff-Appellee
    Benito Martinez-Ipina, Pro Se
    Before DAVIS, CLEMENT, and COSTA, Circuit Judges.
   PER CURIAM:

The Federal Public Defender appointed to represent Benito Martinez-Ipina has moved for leave to withdraw and has filed a brief in accordance with Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738, 87 S.Ct. 1396, 18 L.Ed.2d 493 (1967), and United States v. Flores, 632 F.3d 229 (5th Cir. 2011). Martinez-Ipina has submitted an untimely response challenging his conviction. Even if it were timely, because the record reflects that Martinez-Ipina knowingly decided not to appeal his conviction, we will not address the issues raised in his response. See United States v. Polanco-Ozorto, 772 F.3d 1053, 1054-55 (5th Cir. 2014). 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       Pursuant to 5th Cir. R. 47.5, the court has determined that this opinion should not be published and is not precedent except under the limited circumstances set forth in 5th Cir. R. 47.5.4.
