Conference Calendar
United States Court of Appeals
Fifth Circuit
FILED
December 20, 2016
UNITED STATES OF AMERICA,
Lyle W. Cayce
Clerk
Plaintiff-Appellee
v.
SANTOS SALINAS, also known as Tito, also known as Santos Salinas, Jr.,
Defendant-Appellant
Appeal from the United States District Court
for the Western District of Texas
USDC No. 1:15-CR-250-6
Before DENNIS, PRADO, and OWEN, Circuit Judges.
PER CURIAM: *
The attorney appointed to represent Santos Salinas 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).
Salinas has filed a response. The record is not sufficiently developed to allow
us to make a fair evaluation of Salinas’s claims of ineffective assistance of
counsel; we therefore decline to consider them without prejudice to collateral
* 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 R. 47.5, the court has determined that this opinion should not
be published and is not precedent except under the limited circumstances set forth in 5TH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.

review. See United States v. Isgar,
739 F.3d 829, 841 (5th Cir. 2014). The
motion for appointment of substitute counsel is DENIED as untimely. See
United States v. Wagner,
158 F.3d 901, 902-03 (5th Cir. 1998).
We have reviewed counsel’s brief and the relevant portions of the record
reflected therein, as well as Salinas’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.
