   United States of America,

                                                                       Plaintiff—Appellee,

                                             versus

   Kentrell Laday,

                                               Defendant—Appellant.
                      ______________________________

                      Appeal from the United States District Court
                         for the Western District of Louisiana
                               USDC No. 6:21-CR-178-1
                      ______________________________

   Before Higginbotham, Graves, and Ho, Circuit Judges.
   Per Curiam: *
          The attorney appointed to represent Kentrell Laday 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).
   Laday has filed a response. To the extent that Laday attempts to raise claims
   of ineffective assistance of counsel, the record is not sufficiently developed

          _____________________

              This opinion is not designated for publication. See 5th Cir. R. 47.5.
Case: 22-30551      Document: 00516711982           Page: 2   Date Filed: 04/14/2023

                                     No. 22-30551

   to allow us to make a fair evaluation of Laday’s claims; we therefore 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 Laday’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.
          However, there is a clerical error in the written judgment. The record
   reflects that Laday pleaded guilty to possession of a firearm after a conviction
   for a misdemeanor crime of domestic violence in violation of 18
   U.S.C. § 922(g)(9). The judgment lists § 922 as the statute of conviction but
   does not include subsection (g)(9), and it incorrectly describes the nature of
   the offense as “Unlawful Transport Of Firearms, Etc. – Possession Of An
   Unregistered Firearm With Forfeiture Allegation.”            Accordingly, we
   REMAND to the district court for the limited purpose of correcting the
   clerical error in the judgment. See Fed. R. Crim. P. 36.
