UNITED STATES OF AMERICA
Plaintiff-Appellee
v.
BELINDA SAGE
Defendant-Appellant
Appeal from the United States District Court
for the Eastern District of Texas
USDC No. 9:06-CR-5-ALL
Before HIGGINBOTHAM, SMITH, and CLEMENT, Circuit Judges.
PER CURIAM:*
The attorney appointed to represent Belinda Sage has moved for leave to
withdraw and has filed a brief in accordance with Anders v. California, 386 U.S.
738 (1967). Sage has filed a response. The record is insufficiently developed to
allow consideration at this time of Sage’s claims of ineffective assistance of
counsel. See United States v. Cantwell, 470 F.3d 1087, 1091 (5th Cir. 2006). Our
independent review of the record, counsel’s brief, and Sage’s response 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.
