UNITED STATES OF AMERICA

v.

EUSEBIO MARTINEZ

                                           Defendant-Appellant

                 Appeal from the United States District Court
                      for the Western District of Texas
                          USDC No. 3:06-CR-1169-3

Before STEWART, OWEN and SOUTHWICK, Circuit Judges.
PER CURIAM:*
      The attorney appointed to represent Eusebio Martinez has moved for leave
to withdraw and has filed a brief in accordance with Anders v. California, 386
U.S. 738 (1967). Martinez has filed a response. The record is insufficiently
developed to allow consideration at this time of Martinez’s claim of ineffective
assistance of counsel. See United States v. Cantwell, 470 F.3d 1087, 1091 (5th
Cir. 2006). Our independent review of the record, counsel’s brief, and Martinez’s

      *
      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should not be published and is not precedent except under the limited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.
                                 No. 07-50183

response discloses no nonfrivolous issue for appeal. Accordingly, the motion for
leave to withdraw is GRANTED, Martinez’s request for substitute counsel is
DENIED, counsel is excused from further responsibilities herein, and the
APPEAL IS DISMISSED. See 5TH CIR. R. 42.2.
