United States of America Plaintiff - Appellee v. Corey Andrew Barr Defendant - Appellant
Appeal from United States District Court for the Western District of Missouri - St. Joseph [Unpublished] Before LOKEN, GRUENDER, and BENTON, Circuit Judges. PER CURIAM.
Corey Barr appeals the sentence the district court imposed after he pleaded guilty to a firearm offense. His counsel has moved to withdraw and has filed a brief under Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738 (1967), challenging the substantive reasonableness of the sentence.
The Honorable Beth Phillips, Chief Judge, United States District Court for the Western District of Missouri. --------
After careful review, we conclude that 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 considered an improper or irrelevant factor or committed a clear error in weighing relevant factors. See United States v. Salazar-Aleman, 741 F.3d 878, 881 (8th Cir. 2013) (discussing appellate review of sentencing decisions). Further, the court imposed a sentence within the guidelines imprisonment range. See United States v. Callaway, 762 F.3d 754, 760 (8th Cir. 2014) (stating that a within-guidelines-range sentence is presumed reasonable).
Having independently reviewed the record under Penson v. Ohio, 488 U.S. 75 (1988), we find no nonfrivolous issues for appeal. Accordingly, we grant counsel's motion and affirm.
