IN THE UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS

FOR THE FIFTH CIRCUIT

No. 14-11011

Summary Calendar

UNITED STATES OF AMERICA,

Plaintiff-Appellee

v.

MICHAEL ROY ROBERSON,

Defendant-Appellant

Appeals from the United States District Court

for the Northern District of Texas

USDC No. 1:13-CR-84

Before JOLLY, DENNIS, and PRADO, Circuit Judges.

PER CURIAM:*

The attorney appointed to represent Michael Roy Roberson has moved 

for leave to withdraw and has filed briefs in accordance with Anders v. 

California, 386 U.S. 738 (1967), and United States v. Flores, 632 F.3d 229 (5th 

Cir. 2011). Roberson has filed responses. The record is not sufficiently 

developed to allow us to make a fair evaluation of Roberson’s claims of 

ineffective assistance of counsel; we therefore decline to consider the claims

 

* 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.

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 briefs and the relevant portions of the record 

reflected therein, as well as Roberson’s responses. 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. Roberson’s second request for the appointment of substitute 

counsel is DENIED. See United States v. Wagner, 158 F.3d 901, 902-03 (5th 

Cir. 1998).
