sentenced him to 8 months in prison and 2 years of supervised release. His counsel
1The Honorable Henry E. Autrey, United States District Judge for the Eastern
District of Missouri.

has moved to withdraw, and has filed a brief challenging the substantive
reasonableness of the sentence.
After careful review of the record, we conclude that the district court did not
abuse its discretion in imposing the revocation sentence. See United States v.
McGhee, 869 F.3d 703, 705-06 (8th Cir. 2017) (per curiam). The revocation sentence
is within the Guidelines range and accorded a presumption of substantive
reasonableness on appeal. See United States v. Perkins, 526 F.3d 1107, 1110 (8th
Cir. 2008). Moreover, there is no indication that the district court failed to consider
a relevant 18 U.S.C. § 3553(a) factor, gave significant weight to an improper or
irrelevant factor, or committed a clear error of judgment in weighing the appropriate
factors. See McGhee, 869 F.3d at 706.
Accordingly, we grant counsel’s motion to withdraw and affirm.
