Case: 18-20178 Document: 00514859240 Page: 2 Date Filed: 03/04/2019

No. 18-20178 Cruz has moved for leave to withdraw and has filed a brief per Anders v. Cali- fornia, 386 U.S. 738 (1967), and United States v. Flores, 632 F.3d 229 (5th Cir. 2011). Alvino De La Cruz has filed a response. The record is not sufficiently developed to allow us to make a fair evaluation of Alvino De La Cruz’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).

We have reviewed counsel’s brief, relevant portions of the record, and Alvino De La Cruz’s response. We concur with counsel’s assessment that the appeal presents no nonfrivolous issue for appellate review. Accordingly, the 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.
