Appeal from the United States District Court
for the Northern District of Texas
USDC No. 7:22-CR-13-1
______________________________
Before Higginbotham, Graves, and Ho, Circuit Judges.
Per Curiam: *
The attorney appointed to represent Angel Roman Walter Medina has
moved for leave to withdraw and has filed a brief in accordance with Anders
v. California, 386 U.S. 738 (1967), and United States v. Flores, 632 F.3d 229(5th Cir. 2011). Medina has filed a response. The record is not sufficiently
developed to allow us to make a fair evaluation of Medina’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 and the relevant portions of the
record reflected therein, as well as Medina’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.
