UNITED STATES of America, Appellee,
v.
John Lawrence DRENNAN, Jr., Appellant.

No. 95-2108.

United States Court of Appeals, Eighth Circuit.

Submitted April 4, 1996.
Decided April 22, 1996.

Before FAGG, BOWMAN, and HANSEN, Circuit Judges.

PER CURIAM.

1

John L. Drennan, Jr., appeals from the district court's1 order imposing a ten-month term of imprisonment upon revocation of his supervised release. On appeal, appointed counsel filed a brief pursuant to Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738 (1967), raising as issues whether the district court sentenced Drennan within the applicable range and whether the district court abused its discretion in imposing the ten-month sentence.

2

We conclude Drennan was sentenced within the proper range, and the record convinces us that the district court considered and applied the pertinent statutory and Sentencing Guidelines provisions. See 18 U.S.C. § 3583(e); U.S.S.G. §§ 7B1.1(a)(3), 7B1.4(a). We also conclude that the district court did not abuse its discretion in imposing the sentence. See United States v. Smeathers, 930 F.2d 18, 18-19 (8th Cir.1991) (per curiam); United States v. Graves, 914 F.2d 159, 161 (8th Cir.1990) (per curiam).

3

In accordance with Penson v. Ohio, 488 U.S. 75, 80 (1988), we have reviewed the record and have found no other nonfrivolous issues for appeal.

4

Accordingly, we affirm the judgment of the district court.
