                     Appeal from the United States District Court
                          for the Eastern District of Texas
                              USDC No. 4:20-CR-321-1
                     ______________________________

   Before Jolly, Higginson, and Duncan, Circuit Judges.
   Per Curiam:*
         The attorney appointed to represent Ricardo Campos-Basurto 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). Campos-Basurto has filed a response. The record is not
   sufficiently developed to allow us to make a fair evaluation of Campos-

                                     No. 23-40173

   Basurto’s claims of ineffective assistance of counsel; we therefore decline to
   consider those claims without prejudice to collateral review. See United
   States v. Isgar, 739 F.3d 829, 841 (5th Cir. 2014).
          We have reviewed counsel’s brief and the relevant portions of the
   record reflected therein, as well as Campos-Basurto’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.
