concur with counsel’s assessment that the appeal presents no nonfrivolous
issue for appellate review.
Our review reveals a clerical error in the written judgment. The
judgment erroneously states that Devoil admitted his guilt to the listed
violations of supervised release although the district court found the violations
had occurred after Devoil denied guilt.
Accordingly, counsel’s motion for leave to withdraw is GRANTED,
counsel is excused from further responsibilities herein, and the APPEAL IS
DISMISSED. See 5
TH CIR. R. 42.2. This matter is REMANDED for the limited
purpose of correcting the clerical error in the judgment. See F
ED. R. CRIM. P.
36; United States v. Johnson, 588 F.2d 961, 964 (5th Cir. 1979).
