   MEMORANDUM

Gordon Goei appeals from his jury trial conviction and 41-month sentence for wire fraud, in violation of 18 U.S.C. § 1343; evasion of income tax, in violation of 26 U.S.C. § 7201; and aiding and abetting, in violation of 18 U.S.C. § 2. We have jurisdiction under 28 U.S.C. § 1291, and we affirm.

Goei contends that he was denied his Sixth Amendment right to effective assistance of counsel when his trial attorney failed to present a defense, failed to present any witnesses, failed to cross examine two witnesses, and failed to offer any proposed jury instructions. We decline to review these claims on direct appeal as the record is insufficiently developed and the legal representation was not so inadequate that it obviously denied Goei his Sixth Amendment right to counsel. See United States v. Benford, 574 F.3d 1228, 1231 (9th Cir.2009).

AFFIRMED. 
      
       This disposition is not appropriate for publication and is not precedent except as provided by 9th Cir. R. 36-3.
