PER CURIAM.
Kobe Powell appeals after the district court1 revoked his supervised release and
sentenced him to 10 months in prison with no further supervised release. His counsel
1The Honorable James M. Moody Jr., United States District Judge for the
Eastern District of Arkansas.

-- 1 of 2 --

has moved to withdraw and has filed a brief challenging the substantive
reasonableness of the sentence.
After careful review of the record, we conclude the district court did not abuse
its discretion in imposing the revocation sentence. See United States v. Miller, 557
F.3d 910, 915-17 (8th Cir. 2009) (standard of review). There is no indication the
district court failed to consider a relevant factor, gave significant weight to an
improper or irrelevant factor, or committed a clear error of judgment in weighing
relevant factors. See United States v. Larison, 432 F.3d 921, 922-24 (8th Cir. 2006)
(reciting considerations to discern whether revocation sentence is unreasonable).
Moreover, 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).
Accordingly, we grant counsel’s motion to withdraw, and we affirm the
judgment.
