                    Appeal from the United States District Court
                        for the Northern District of Texas
                             USDC No. 3:21-CR-207-1
                    ______________________________

   Before Jones, Graves, and Ho, Circuit Judges.
   Per Curiam: *
          The Federal Public Defender appointed to represent Paul Henry
   Mayberry 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). Mayberry has filed a response. Among other

          _____________________
          *
              Pursuant to 5th Circuit Rule 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   should not be published and is not precedent except under the limited circumstances set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 Circuit Rule 47.5.4.

   things, he appears to suggest that he received ineffective assistance of counsel
   in the district court. Because the record is not sufficiently developed to allow
   us to make a fair evaluation of this claim, we decline to consider it without
   prejudice to collateral review. See United States v. Isgar, 739 F.3d 829, 841
   (5th Cir. 2014). To the extent Mayberry moves for the appointment of
   substitute counsel, the motion is DENIED. See United States v. Wagner,
   158 F.3d 901, 902-03 (5th Cir. 1998).
          We have reviewed counsel’s brief and the relevant portions of the
   record reflected therein, as well as Mayberry’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.
