Before LOKEN, FAGG, and BYE, Circuit Judges.

PER CURIAM.

       James J. Wolf appeals the sentence the district court1 imposed after he pleaded
guilty to being a felon in possession of a firearm, in violation of 18 U.S.C. §§ 922(g),
924(a)(2). On appeal, counsel has moved to withdraw and filed a brief pursuant to
Anders v. California, 

(1967), in which he challenges (1) the assignment
of two criminal history points for a prior 180-day sentence of incarceration that Wolf
received for violating his probation on a prior state firearms conviction, and (2) the


      1
        The Honorable Ortrie D. Smith, United States District Judge for the Western
District of Missouri.
district court’s decision to make Wolf’s sentence consecutive to a state sentence he
was then serving following revocation of his parole on multiple stealing convictions.
In a pro se supplemental brief, Wolf joins counsel in raising these issues. He also
challenges the assessment of three criminal history points based on the sentence he
received for his stealing convictions, arguing that they were obtained through perjured
testimony, and he contends that the district court should have granted him a sentence
reduction because of his lack of culpability in committing the instant offense. We reject
each of these arguments and affirm.

      First, Wolf’s challenge to the assignment of two points for his 180-day
revocation sentence fails, because at sentencing, the government introduced state court
records showing that Wolf in fact received the sentence after violating his probation,
and Wolf has not rebutted the government’s evidence. See United States v. Holland,

, 416 (8th Cir. 1999) (standard of review). Second, because Wolf was on
parole for the stealing convictions when he committed the instant offense, the district
court was required to impose a consecutive sentence. See United States v. Goldman,

, 944 (8th Cir. 2000), cert. denied, 

(2001). Third, Wolf
cannot challenge the evidence underlying his stealing convictions in a federal
sentencing proceeding. See United States v. Strange, 

, 362 (8th Cir.
1996). Finally, Wolf did not seek a sentence reduction based on his asserted lack of
“culpability” (nor can we see any basis for such a reduction in these circumstances).

      We have reviewed the record in accordance with Penson v. Ohio, 

(1988), and find no nonfrivolous issues. Accordingly, we affirm and grant counsel’s
motion to withdraw.
