withdraw as counsel 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). Juarez has filed a response. The record is not sufficiently developed to 

allow us to make a fair evaluation of Juarez’s claim of ineffective assistance of 

counsel; we therefore decline to consider that claim without prejudice to collateral review. See United States v. Isgar, 739 F.3d 829, 841 (5th Cir. 2014).

We have reviewed counsel’s brief, relevant portions of the record reflected therein, and Juarez’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. Juarez’s motion for appointment of substitute counsel is DENIED.
