PER CURIAM.
Federal prisoner Donald Turner appeals his reduced sentence after the district
court1 granted his motion for a sentence reduction under 18 U.S.C. § 3582(c)(1)(A)(i).
1The Honorable John A. Ross, United States District Judge for the Eastern
District of Missouri.

He argues on appeal that the modified sentence is substantively unreasonable, as the
court should have reduced the sentence further. Upon careful review, we conclude
that the court did not abuse its discretion, as the appropriate sentence reduction is
within the district court’s discretion, and the court adequately considered the relevant
sentencing factors and the parties’ arguments. See United States v. Davis, 19 F.4th
1083, 1086 (8th Cir. 2021) (per curiam); United States v. Rodd, 966 F.3d 740, 748
(8th Cir. 2020).
Accordingly, we affirm. We also grant counsel’s motion to withdraw.
