                                 ____________

Before BENTON, MURPHY, and KELLY, Circuit Judges.
                          ____________

PER CURIAM.
       Christin Barnes directly appeals after he pleaded guilty to methamphetamine
distribution offenses, and the district court1 sentenced him below the calculated
Guidelines range. His counsel has moved for leave to withdraw, and has filed a brief
under Anders v. California, 

(1967), suggesting that the sentence is
substantively unreasonable. After careful review, we conclude that the district court
did not impose a substantively unreasonable sentence. See United States v. Salazar-
Aleman, 

, 881 (8th Cir. 2013) (discussing appellate review of sentencing
decisions); see also United States v. Torres-Ojeda, 

, 1030 (8th Cir.
2016) (where defendant was sentenced below advisory Guidelines range, it is nearly
inconceivable that district court abused its discretion in not varying downward still
further).

      Having independently reviewed the record under Penson v. Ohio, 

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