Before GRUENDER, MURPHY, and SHEPHERD, Circuit Judges.
____________
PER CURIAM.
In these consolidated appeals, Douglas Packett directly appeals the concurrent
within-Guidelines-range sentences the district court imposed upon revoking his1
supervised release in the underlying cases. His counsel has moved for leave to
withdraw, and has filed a brief asserting that the sentences are substantively
unreasonable.
Reviewing Packett’s revocation sentences for an abuse of discretion, see
United States v. Growden, 663 F.3d 982, 984 (8th Cir. 2011) (per curiam) (standard
of review), we conclude that the sentences are not unreasonable, as both the prison
terms and the supervised-release term are within the statutory limits, and the prison
terms are within the applicable advisory Guidelines range, see United States v.
Petreikis, 551 F.3d 822, 824 (8th Cir. 2009) (applying presumption of substantive
reasonableness to revocation sentence within Guidelines range). We affirm the
judgments, and we grant counsel leave to withdraw.
