United States v. Beauchamp
United States v. Beauchamp
Opinion
The Federal Public Defender appointed to represent Dana Beauchamp has moved for 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). Beauchamp has filed a response, which includes a claim of ineffective assistance. We do not reach that claim (about which we express no opinion), because the record has not been adequately developed to address it on direct appeal. See United States v. Sanchez-Pena, 336 F.3d 431, 445-46 (5th Cir. 2003).
Our independent review of the brief, the government’s response, Beauchamp’s response, and the record discloses no non-frivolous issue for appeal. Accordingly, 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. All remaining motions are DENIED.
Pursuant to 5th Cir. R. 47.5, the court has determined that this opinion should not be published and is not precedent except under the limited circumstances set forth in 5th Cir. R. 47.5.4.
