ineffective assistance of counsel; we therefore decline to consider the claim without prejudice to collateral review. See United States v. Isgar, 739 F.3d 829, 841 (5th Cir. 2014).

We have reviewed counsel’s brief and the relevant portions of the record reflected therein, as well as Alvarez’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.

However, there are clerical errors in the written judgment. The judgment refers to the offense of conviction as “Conspiracy to Possess With Intent Distribute and Distribution of Controlled Substance,” but the record reflects that Alvarez pleaded guilty to conspiracy to possess with intent to manufacture and distribute 500 grams or more of a mixture or substance containing a detectable amount of cocaine. See 21 U.S.C. §§ 846 and 841(a)(1). Additionally, the judgment lists the penalty provision as “841(b)(1)(A),” but Alvarez was sentenced under § 841(b)(1)(B). We therefore REMAND for correction of the clerical errors in the written judgment. See Fed. R. Crim. P. 36.
