                                 ____________

Before LOKEN, BENTON, and KOBES, Circuit Judges.
                           ____________

PER CURIAM.

      Jeremy Thomas Traylor appeals the sentence the district court1 imposed after
he pleaded guilty to a drug offense. His counsel has moved to withdraw and has filed

      1
       The Honorable P.K. Holmes, III, United States District Judge for the Western
District of Arkansas.
a brief under Anders v. California, 
386 U.S. 738
 (1967), challenging the sentence as
substantively unreasonable.

       Having reviewed the record under a deferential abuse-of-discretion standard
of review, see Gall v. United States, 
552 U.S. 38
, 41, 51 (2007), we conclude the
district court did not impose an unreasonable sentence. The court properly
considered the factors set forth in 18 U.S.C. § 3553(a), and there is no indication that
the court overlooked a relevant factor, gave significant weight to an improper or
irrelevant factor, or committed a clear error of judgment in weighing relevant factors.
See United States v. Feemster, 
572 F.3d 455
, 461-62 (8th Cir. 2009) (en banc); see
also United States v. Richart, 
662 F.3d 1037
, 1054 (8th Cir. 2011); United States v.
Lazarski, 
560 F.3d 731
, 733 (8th Cir. 2009). We have independently reviewed the
record under Penson v. Ohio, 
488 U.S. 75
 (1988), and have found no non-frivolous
issues for appeal.

      Accordingly, we affirm the judgment, and we grant counsel’s motion to
withdraw.
