withdraw, and has filed a brief under Anders v. California,
386 U.S. 738 (1967),
arguing that the sentence is substantively unreasonable.
Upon careful review, we conclude that Barbosa-Huerta’s within-Guidelines-
range sentence is not substantively unreasonable. See Gall v. United States,
552 U.S.
38, 51 (2007) (if sentence is within Guidelines range, appellate court may apply
presumption of reasonableness); United States v. Feemster,
572 F.3d 455, 461 (8th
Cir. 2009) (en banc) (appellate review of sentencing decision). Having independently
reviewed the record in accordance with Penson v. Ohio,
488 U.S. 75, 80 (1988), we
find no nonfrivolous issues. Therefore, we affirm, and we grant counsel’s motion to
withdraw, subject to counsel informing appellant about procedures for seeking
rehearing or filing a petition for certiorari.
