United States of America Plaintiff- Appellee v. Jeremy Thomas Traylor Defendant-Appellant


Unpublished

Submitted: September 29, 2021

Appeal from United States District Court for the Western District of Arkansas - Harrison

Before LOKEN, BENTON, and KOBES, Circuit Judges.

PER CURIAM.

Jeremy Thomas Traylor appeals the sentence the district court imposed after he pleaded guilty to a drug offense. His counsel has moved to withdraw and has filed a brief under Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738 (1967), challenging the sentence as substantively unreasonable.

The Honorable P.K. Holmes, III, United States District Judge for the Western District of Arkansas.

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.
