Court-appointed counsel for Francisco Jaramillo-Gonzalez has requested leave to withdraw and has filed a brief as required by Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738, 87 S.Ct. 1396, 18 L.Ed.2d 493 (1967). Jaramillo-Gonzalez was informed of counsel’s motion but did not file a response. Our independent review of the brief and the record discloses no nonfrivolous issue for appeal. We have not considered on its merits Jaramillo-Gonzalez’s allegation of ineffective assistance of counsel because the record is not adequately developed. See United States v. Higdon, 832 F.2d 312, 313-14 (5th Cir. 1987).

Without prejudice to Jaramillo-Gonzalez’s right to file a motion pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 2255, counsel’s 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.
