   Before Wiener, Elrod, and Engelhardt, Circuit Judges.
   Per Curiam: *
          The attorney appointed to represent Defendant-Appellant Aguedo
   Rubio 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), to which Rubio has filed a response. The record is
   not sufficiently developed to allow us to make a fair evaluation of Rubio’s

                                    No. 22-50497

   claims of ineffective assistance of counsel, so we decline to consider the
   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 Rubio’s response. We concur with
   counsel’s assessment that the appeal presents no nonfrivolous issue for
   appellate review. Counsel’s motion for leave to withdraw is GRANTED;
   counsel is excused from further responsibilities herein; and the Rubio’s
   appeal is DISMISSED. See 5th Cir. R. 42.2.
