No. 18-40125 request for appointment of a new appellate attorney is untimely and is denied.

See United States v. Wagner, 158 F.3d 901, 902-03 (5th Cir. 1998).

The record is not sufficiently developed to allow us to make a fair evaluation of Gomez-Rocha’s claims of ineffective assistance of counsel; 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). After reviewing counsel’s brief and the relevant portions of the record reflected therein, as well as Gomez-Rocha’s response, we concur with counsel’s assessment that the appeal presents no nonfrivolous issue for appellate review.

In accordance with the foregoing, Gomez-Rocha’s motion for leave to file an out of time response is GRANTED, Gomez-Rocha’s motion for the appointment of new appellate counsel DENIED, 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.
