We concur with counsel’s assessment that the appeal presents no nonfrivolous issue for appellate review. Accordingly, the 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. Tate’s motion to exceed the word limit applicable to Rule 28(j) letters is GRANTED; however, to the extent that Tate requests vacatur and remand, his request is DENIED. 2
