v.

DANIEL VILLEGAS-AGUILAR,

                                                 Defendant-Appellant

                   Appeal from the United States District Court
                        for the Western District of Texas
                            USDC No. 2:12-CR-1748-1

Before PRADO, OWEN, and GRAVES, Circuit Judges.
PER CURIAM: *
       The Federal Public Defender appointed to represent Daniel Villegas-
Aguilar has moved for leave to withdraw and has filed briefs in accordance
with Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738 (1967), and United States v. Flores, 632
F.3d 229 (5th Cir. 2011). Villegas-Aguilar has filed responses. The record is
not sufficiently developed to allow us to make a fair evaluation of Villegas-
Aguilar’s claim of ineffective assistance of counsel; we therefore decline to

       * 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 R. 47.5, the court has determined that this opinion should not
be published and is not precedent except under the limited circumstances set forth in 5TH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.
    Case: 13-50833    Document: 00512774544     Page: 2   Date Filed: 09/18/2014

                                 No. 13-50833

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 Villegas-Aguilar’s responses. 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.
