Defendant-Appellant.

Appeal from the United States District Court
for the Eastern District of Texas
USDC No. 6:03-CR-63
--------------------
Before HIGGINBOTHAM, BENAVIDES, and PRADO, Circuit Judges.
PER CURIAM:*
Appointed counsel for Saleem Jaffer Jiwani has moved to
withdraw and has filed a brief as required by Anders v.
California, 386 U.S. 738 (1967). Jiwani has responded. We do
not address Jiwani’s claims of ineffective assistance of counsel
because the record has not been developed adequately. See United
States v. Sanchez-Pena, 336 F.3d 431, 445-46 (5th Cir. 2003).
Our independent review of the record, counsel’s brief, and
Jiwani’s responses discloses no nonfrivolous issue for appeal.
Counsel’s motion for leave to withdraw is GRANTED, counsel is

excused from further responsibilities, and the APPEAL IS
DISMISSED. See 5TH CIR. R. 42.2. Jiwani’s motion for appointment
of substitute counsel or, alternatively, for an extension of time
to file a pro se brief on appeal is DENIED.
