                                   ____________

Before GRUENDER, BOWMAN, and BENTON, Circuit Judges.
                       ____________

PER CURIAM.

      Rodderick Goins directly appeals the within-guidelines sentence the district
     1
court imposed after he pled guilty to a firearms offense. His counsel has filed a brief

         1
       The Honorable James M. Moody Jr., United States District Judge for the
Eastern District of Arkansas.
under Anders v. California, 

(1967), questioning the reasonableness of
Goins’s sentence. Counsel has also moved for leave to withdraw.

       Upon careful review,2 we conclude that the district court did not impose an
unreasonable sentence. See United States v. Feemster, 

, 461-62 (8th Cir.
2009) (en banc) (reviewing the sentence under a deferential abuse-of-discretion
standard and noting that if the sentence is within the guidelines range, the appellate
court may, but is not required to, apply a presumption of reasonableness). In
addition, having independently reviewed the record pursuant to Penson v. Ohio, 

(1988), we find no nonfrivolous issues for appeal. Accordingly, we grant
counsel leave to withdraw, and we affirm.
                      ______________________________

       Goins pled guilty pursuant to a plea agreement that contained an appeal
waiver, but we decline to enforce the appeal waiver. See United States v. Boneshirt,

, 515-16 (8th Cir. 2011).
