IN THE UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS

FOR THE FIFTH CIRCUIT

No. 15-10363

Summary Calendar

UNITED STATES OF AMERICA,

Plaintiff-Appellee

v.

FLOYD KEITH SULLINS,

Defendant-Appellant

Appeal from the United States District Court

for the Northern District of Texas

USDC No. 4:07-CR-114-1

Before DAVIS, JONES, and GRAVES, Circuit Judges. 

PER CURIAM:*

The Federal Public Defender appointed to represent Floyd Keith Sullins

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). Sullins has filed a response. The record is not sufficiently 

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

assistance of counsel or threats against him; we therefore decline to consider 

 

* 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.

the 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); United States 

v. Corbett, 742 F.2d 173, 176-78 & n.11 (5th Cir. 1984). 

We have reviewed counsel’s brief and the relevant portions of the record 

reflected therein, as well as Sullins’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.
