Before WIENER, OWEN, and HAYNES, Circuit Judges.
PER CURIAM:*
The attorney appointed to represent Mark Anthony Garcia has moved for

v. California,
386 U.S. 738 (1967), and United States v. Flores,
632 F.3d 229 (5th
Cir. 2011). In response to the motion, Garcia requests that we strike counsel’s
brief, extend the briefing period, and appoint new appellate counsel. We have
reviewed counsel’s brief and the record. We concur with counsel’s assessment
that the appeal presents no nonfrivolous issue; however, we do not address

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 R. 47.5, the court has determined that this opinion should not
be published and is not precedent except under the limited circumstances set forth in 5TH CIR.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. 11-51047
counsel’s discussion of the adequacy of trial counsel’s performance as the issue
was not raised in the district court and the record has not been developed for
appellate review. See United States v. Cantwell,
470 F.3d 1087, 1091 (5th Cir.
2006). Accordingly, Garcia’s motions to strike the brief, extend the briefing
period, and appoint substitute counsel are DENIED; 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.
