PER CURIAM.
Rena Kirk challenges the reasonableness of the sentence the district court 1
imposed upon revoking her supervised release. Upon careful review, we conclude
1The Honorable John A. Jarvey, Chief Judge, United States District Court for
the Southern District of Iowa.

-- 1 of 2 --

that the revocation sentence is not unreasonable. See United States v. Miller, 557 F.3d
910, 915-16 (8th Cir. 2009) (discussing appellate review of revocation sentence); see
also United States v. Lazarski, 560 F.3d 731, 733 (8th Cir. 2009) (when court imposed
below-Guidelines-range sentence, it was “nearly inconceivable” that court abused its
discretion in not varying downward still further).
Accordingly, the judgment is affirmed. We also grant counsel’s motion for
leave to withdraw.
