PER CURIAM.

       At a supervised-release revocation hearing, Charles Williams admitted to the
district court1 that he had violated several of his release conditions while serving a

District of Missouri.
period of supervised release on a federal criminal sentence. The court revoked
supervised release and imposed a revocation sentence of 21 months in prison--the
bottom of the Chapter 7 revocation range--and 1 year of additional supervised release.
On appeal, Williams contends that the sentence is substantively unreasonable because
it is greater than necessary to comply with the purposes of 18 U.S.C. ยง 3553(a). After
careful review, we conclude that the court did not abuse its discretion. See United
States v. Miller, 
557 F.3d 910
, 915-16 (8th Cir. 2009) (standard of review). The
judgment is affirmed, and we grant counsel leave to withdraw.
