JAMES COOLEY, also known as Boo-Boo,

                   Appeal from the United States District Court
                      for the Eastern District of Louisiana
                            USDC No. 2:07-CR-352-12


Before DAVIS, CLEMENT and COSTA, Circuit Judges.
PER CURIAM: *
       The Federal Public Defender appointed to represent James Cooley 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). Cooley has filed a response. The record is not sufficiently developed
to allow us to make a fair evaluation of Cooley’s claim of ineffective assistance
of counsel; we therefore decline to consider the claim without prejudice to


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 R. 47.5, the court has determined that this opinion should not
be published and is not precedent except under the limited circumstances set forth in 5TH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

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 parts of the record
reflected therein, as well as Cooley’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. The motion for leave to proceed pro se is DENIED. See United
States v. Wagner, 158 F.3d 901, 902-03 (5th Cir. 1998).
