After violating the conditions of supervised release for the second time,
Darron Hill received a 12-month prison sentence. His counsel, who seeks
permission to withdraw, suggests the sentence is substantively unreasonable.

We conclude otherwise. See United States v. Dixon, 52 F.4th 731, 733 (8th
Cir. 2022) (reviewing a revocation sentence for an abuse of discretion). The record
shows that the district court1 sufficiently considered the statutory sentencing factors,
18 U.S.C. §§ 3553(a), 3583(e)(3), and did not rely on an improper factor or commit
a clear error of judgment. See United States v. Timberlake, 679 F.3d 1008, 1012
(8th Cir. 2012) (explaining that the district court has “substantial latitude to
determine how much weight to give the various factors” (citation omitted)). We
accordingly affirm the judgment of the district court and grant counsel permission
to withdraw.
