The Federal Public Defender appointed to represent Julia Ann Balderas has moved 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). Balderas has filed a response to counsel’s motion to withdraw. Our independent review of the brief, Balderas’s response, and the record discloses no nonfrivolous issues for appeal. We decline to address any claim of ineffective assistance of counsel, without prejudice to Balderas’s right to assert such claims in a motion pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 2255. United States v. Higdon, 832 F.2d 312, 314 (5th Cir. 1987). Counsel’s motion for leave to withdraw is GRANTED, counsel is excused from further responsibilities, and the appeal is DISMISSED. See 5th Cir. R. 42.2.
