                             USDC No. 3:12-CR-297-2


Before KING, JOLLY, and HAYNES, Circuit Judges.
PER CURIAM: *
       The Federal Public Defender appointed to represent Uriel Valencia-
Torres 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). Valencia-Torres has filed a response. The record is not
sufficiently developed to allow us to make a fair evaluation of Valencia-Torres’s
claims of ineffective assistance of counsel; we therefore decline to consider the


       * 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 R. 47.5, the court has determined that this opinion should not
be published and is not precedent except under the limited circumstances set forth in 5TH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.

claims without prejudice to collateral review. See United States v. Isgar, 739
F.3d 829, 841 (5th Cir.), cert. denied, 135 S. Ct. 123 (2014).
      We have reviewed counsel’s brief and the relevant portions of the record
reflected therein, as well as Valencia-Torres’s response.        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.
