Conference Calendar
UNITED STATES OF AMERICA
Plaintiff-Appellee
v.
LAZARO TORRES DIAZ, also known as “El Prieto”, also known as “El Negro”
Defendant-Appellant
Appeal from the United States District Court
for the Northern District of Texas
USDC No. 6:07-CR-9-1
Before JONES, Chief Judge, and JOLLY and DENNIS, Circuit Judges.
PER CURIAM:*
The attorney appointed to represent Lazaro Torres Diaz has moved for
leave to withdraw and has filed a brief in accordance with Anders v. California,
386 U.S. 738 (1967). Diaz has filed a response. Diaz’s claim of ineffective
assistance of counsel on appeal is premature. Our independent review of the
record, counsel’s brief, and Diaz’s response discloses no nonfrivolous issue for
appeal.
