IN THE UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS
FOR THE FIFTH CIRCUIT
United States Court of Appeals
Fifth Circuit
No. 14-11011 FILED
Summary Calendar December 28, 2015
Lyle W. Cayce
Clerk
UNITED STATES OF AMERICA,
Plaintiff-Appellee
v.
MICHAEL ROY ROBERSON,
Defendant-Appellant
Appeals from the United States District Court
for the Northern District of Texas
USDC No. 1:13-CR-84
Before JOLLY, DENNIS, and PRADO, Circuit Judges.
PER CURIAM: *
The attorney appointed to represent Michael Roy Roberson has moved
for leave to withdraw and has filed briefs in accordance with Anders v.
California, 386 U.S. 738 (1967), and United States v. Flores, 632 F.3d 229 (5th
Cir. 2011). Roberson has filed responses. The record is not sufficiently
developed to allow us to make a fair evaluation of Roberson’s claims of
ineffective assistance of counsel; we therefore decline to consider the claims
* Pursuant to 5TH CIR. R. 47.5, the court has determined that this opinion should not
be published and is not precedent except under the limited circumstances set forth in 5TH
CIR. R. 47.5.4.

No. 14-11011
without prejudice to collateral review. See United States v. Isgar, 739 F.3d 829,
841 (5th Cir.), cert. denied, 135 S. Ct. 123 (2014).
We have reviewed counsel’s briefs and the relevant portions of the record
reflected therein, as well as Roberson’s responses. 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. Roberson’s second request for the appointment of substitute
counsel is DENIED. See United States v. Wagner, 158 F.3d 901, 902-03 (5th
Cir. 1998).
