Case: 17-10412 Document: 00514474614 Page: 2 Date Filed: 05/16/2018

No. 17-10412

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). Prieto-Garcia has not filed a response. We have reviewed counsel’s brief and the relevant portions of the record.

We question whether counsel’s certification that the government will enforce the appellate waiver is sufficiently specific to the waiver in this case. See United States v. Davis, 530 F.3d 318, 320 (5th Cir. 2008). But we need not reach that issue, because it is not jurisdictional and because counsel examines all potential appellate claims, even those covered by the waiver, in the brief. See United States v. Story, 439 F.3d 226, 230−31 (5th Cir. 2006).

We concur with counsel’s assessment that the appeal presents no non- frivolous issue for appellate review. Accordingly, the motion to withdraw is GRANTED, counsel is excused from further responsibilities herein, and the appeal is DISMISSED. See 5TH CIR. R. 42.2.
