Appeal from the United States District Court
for the Eastern District of Texas
USDC No. 6:18-CR-4-1
Before King, Southwick, and Ho, Circuit Judges.
Per Curiam:*
The attorney appointed to represent Horace Grely Dean 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,

No. 20-40176
developed to allow us to make a fair evaluation of Dean’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 Dean’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.
