to 11 months in prison and an additional 1 year of supervised release. Williams’s
counsel has moved to withdraw and has filed a brief arguing that Williams’s sentence
is substantively unreasonable. Williams has not filed a pro se brief.
Upon careful review, we conclude that the district court did not impose an
unreasonable revocation sentence. See United States v. Growden, 663 F.3d 982, 984
(8th Cir. 2011) (per curiam) (describing appellate review of revocation sentences);
United States v. Petreikis, 551 F.3d 822, 824 (8th Cir. 2009) (applying presumption
of substantive reasonableness to revocation sentence within Guidelines range).
Accordingly, we affirm the judgment of the district court. We also grant
counsel’s motion for leave to withdraw.
