brief under Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738 (1967), challenging the reasonableness
of the sentence. Upon careful review, we conclude that Hobbs’s sentence was not
substantively unreasonable. There is no indication that the district 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.
