    UNITED STATES of America, Plaintiff-Appellee v. Sergio Aaron RUIZ-TAPIA, Defendant-Appellant
    No. 16-11043 Conference Calendar
    United States Court of Appeals, Fifth Circuit.
    Filed April 18, 2017
    James Wesley Hendrix, Assistant U.S. Attorney, U.S. Attorney’s Office, Northern District of Texas, Dallas, TX, for Plaintiff-Appellee
    
      Sergio Aaron Ruiz-Tapia, Pro Se
    Before KING, HAYNES, and GRAVES, Circuit Judges.
   PER CURIAM:

The attorney appointed to represent Sergio Aaron Ruiz-Tapia 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). Ruiz-Tapia has filed a response. His motion for the appointment of substitute counsel is untimely. United States v. Wagner, 158 F.3d 901, 902-03 (5th Cir. 1998). We have reviewed counsel’s brief and the relevant portions of the record reflected therein, as well as Ruiz-Tapia’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, Ruiz-Tapia’s motion for appointment of substitute counsel is DENIED, 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       Pursuant to 5th Cir. R. 47.5, the court has determined that this opinion should not be published and is not precedent except under the limited circumstances set forth in 5th Cir. R. 47.5.4.
