                                                             Plaintiff—Appellee,

   Andrew Ray Zuniga,

                  Appeal from the United States District Court
                      for the Northern District of Texas
                            USDC No. 6:21-CR-19-2

   Before Smith, Stewart, and Graves, Circuit Judges.
   Per Curiam:*
          The attorney appointed to represent Andrew Ray Zuniga 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). Zuniga has filed a response. The record is not sufficiently

          *
            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   opinion should not be published and is not precedent except under the limited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.
Case: 21-11210     Document: 00516374544          Page: 2   Date Filed: 06/28/2022

                                   No. 21-11210

   developed to allow us to make a fair evaluation of Zuniga’s claim of
   ineffective assistance of counsel; we therefore decline to consider the claim
   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 Zuniga’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.
