                   Appeal from the United States District Court
                        for the Southern District of Texas
                             USDC No. 5:15-CR-432-1

Before JOLLY, SMITH, and GRAVES, Circuit Judges.
PER CURIAM: *
       The Federal Public Defender appointed to represent Felipe Millan-Flores
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). Millan-Flores has filed a response. The record is not
sufficiently developed to allow us to make a fair evaluation of Millan-Flores’s
claims of ineffective assistance of counsel; we therefore decline to consider the

       * 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 R. 47.5, the court has determined that this opinion should not
be published and is not precedent except under the limited circumstances set forth in 5TH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.

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
relating to his conviction and sentence, as well as Millan-Flores’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.
