UNITED STATES OF AMERICA,
Plaintiff-Appellee,
versus
ANTHONY QUINN DUCKETT,
Defendant-Appellant.
--------------------
Appeal from the United States District Court
for the Eastern District of Texas
USDC No. 4:05-CR-173-16
--------------------
Before HIGGINBOTHAM, BENAVIDES, and PRADO, Circuit Judges.
PER CURIAM:*
Appointed counsel for Anthony Quinn Duckett has moved for
leave to withdraw and has filed a brief in accordance with Anders
v. California, 386 U.S. 738 (1967). Duckett has filed a response
in which he raises claims of ineffective assistance of trial
counsel. The record is insufficiently developed to allow
consideration of Duckett’s claims of ineffective assistance of
counsel. See United States v. Higdon, 832 F.2d 312, 314 (5th
Cir. 1987).
*
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this opinion should not be published and is not precedent except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. 06-40934
-2-
Our independent review of counsel’s brief, Duckett’s
response, and the record discloses no nonfrivolous issue for
appeal. Accordingly, 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.
