Docket

*1 Before LOKEN, COLLOTON, and STRAS, Circuit Judges.

____________

PER CURIAM.

Michael Lewis appeals the sentence the district court [1] imposed after he pleaded guilty to drug and firearm offenses. His counsel has moved to withdraw and has filed *2 a brief under Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738 (1967), challenging the substantive reasonableness of the sentence.

After careful review, we conclude that the district court did not impose an unreasonable sentence, as there was no indication that it overlooked a relevant 18 U.S.C. § 3553(a) factor, or committed a clear error of judgment in weighing relevant factors, see United States v. Salazar-Aleman, 741 F.3d 878, 881 (8th Cir. 2013) (standard of review); and the sentence was below the Guidelines range, see United States v. Moore, 581 F.3d 681, 684 (8th Cir. 2009) (per curiam). Having independently reviewed the record under Penson v. Ohio, 488 U.S. 75 (1988), we find no nonfrivolous issues for appeal. Accordingly, we grant counsel’s motion and affirm.

[1] The Honorable John A. Jarvey, Chief Judge, United States District Court for the Southern District of Iowa.
