PER CURIAM.
Travis Grote appeals a sentence imposed by the district court1 after he pleaded
guilty to firearm offenses. His counsel has moved to withdraw, and has filed a brief
under Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738 (1967), challenging the reasonableness of
Grote’s sentence. We conclude that the sentence was not substantively unreasonable,
as there is no indication that the court overlooked a relevant factor, gave significant
weight to an improper or irrelevant factor, or committed a clear error of judgment in
weighing the relevant factors. See United States v. Feemster, 572 F.3d 455, 461-62
(8th Cir. 2009) (en banc).
We have also independently reviewed the record under Penson v. Ohio, 488
U.S. 75 (1988), and have found no non-frivolous issues for appeal. Accordingly, we
affirm the judgment, and we grant counsel’s motion to withdraw.
