United States v. Boyett

U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit
United States v. Boyett, 215 F. App'x 354 (5th Cir. 2007)

United States v. Boyett

Opinion

PER CURIAM: *

The Federal Public Defender appointed to represent Sharon Jane Boyett has moved for leave to withdraw from representation and has filed a brief in accordance with Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738, 87 S.Ct. 1396, 18 L.Ed.2d 493 (1967). Boyett has filed several responses. Our independent review of the record, counsel’s brief, and Boyett’s responses shows that there are no nonfrivolous issues for appeal. Although Boyett argues in one of her responses that her counsel was ineffective for various reasons, the record is insufficiently developed to allow consideration of these claims on direct appeal. See United States v. Higdon, 832 F.2d 312, 313-14 (5th Cir. 1987).

Accordingly, the motion for leave to withdraw is GRANTED, counsel is excused from further responsibilities herein, and this appeal is DISMISSED. All other outstanding motions are DENIED. See 5th Cir. R. 42.2.

*

Pursuant to 5th Cir. R. 47.5, the court has determined that this opinion should not be published and is not precedent except under file limited circumstances set forth in 5th Cir. R. 47.5.4.
