Before Richman, Southwick, and Willett, Circuit Judges. Per Curiam: * The attorney appointed to represent Andre Maurice Lamar Sanders 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). Sanders’s response argues that his sentence was unfair, but he also requests that the appeal be dismissed.

See 5th Cir. R. 42.2.
