Opinion:
PER CURIAM:
The Federal Public Defender appointed to represent Jose Elvin Cruz-Garcia has moved for leave to withdraw and has filed a brief in accordance with Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738, 87 S.Ct. 1396, 18 L.Ed.2d 493 (1967), and United States v. Flores, 632 F.3d 229 (5th Cir.2011). Cruz-Garcia has filed a response. Insofar as Cruz-Garcia alleges that his trial counsel provided ineffective assistance with respect to the state court documents concerning his prior California conviction for assault with a deadly weapon, the record is not sufficiently developed to allow us to make a fair evaluation of the claim; we therefore decline to consider the claim without prejudice to collateral review. See United States v. Isgar, 739 F.3d 829, 841 (5th Cir.2014), petition for cert. filed (June 4, 2014) (No. 13-10484).
We have reviewed counsel's brief and the relevant portions of the record reflected therein, as well as Cruz-Garcia's response. We concur with counsel's assessment that the appeal presents no non-frivolous 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.
Pursuant to 5th Cir. R. 47.5, the court has determined that this opinion should not be published and is not precedent except under the limited circumstances set forth in 5th Cir. R. 47.5.4.
