United States Court of Appeals For the Eighth Circuit ___________________________ No. 22-2111 ___________________________ United States of America lllllllllllllllllllllPlaintiff - Appellee v. Shaquandis Thurmond lllllllllllllllllllllDefendant - Appellant ____________ Appeal from United States District Court for the Northern District of Iowa - Cedar Rapids ____________ Submitted: October 31, 2022 Filed: November 3, 2022 [Unpublished] ____________ Before LOKEN, BENTON, and SHEPHERD, Circuit Judges. ____________ PER CURIAM. Shaquandis Thurmond appeals after the district court1 revoked his supervised release and sentenced him to 11 months in prison, to be followed by 2 years of 1 The Honorable Linda R. Reade, United States District Judge for the Northern District of Iowa. supervised release. His counsel has moved to withdraw and has filed a brief challenging the reasonableness of the sentence. After reviewing the record under a deferential abuse-of-discretion standard of review, see United States v. Miller,
557 F.3d 910, 915-16 (8th Cir. 2009), we conclude the district court did not impose an unreasonable sentence. The sentence is below the statutory limits, see
18 U.S.C. § 3583(b)(2), (e)(3), (h), and is presumptively reasonable because it falls within the applicable policy statement range in the United States Sentencing Guidelines Manual, see U.S.S.G. § 7B1.4(a); United States v. Petreikis,
551 F.3d 822, 824 (8th Cir. 2009). The court sufficiently considered the statutory sentencing factors and did not overlook a relevant factor, give significant weight to an improper or irrelevant factor, or commit a clear error of judgment in weighing relevant factors. See
18 U.S.C. § 3583(e); Miller,
557 F.3d at 917; see also United States v. Clayton,
828 F.3d 654, 658 (8th Cir. 2016). Thurmond cannot now complain about his supervised-release sentence because it is what he asked for and received. See United States v.
Thompson, 289F.3d 524, 526 (8th Cir. 2002); see also United States v. Smalley,
846 Fed. Appx. 422, 422 (8th Cir. 2021) (per curiam). Regardless, the court’s decision to sentence him above the probation officer’s non-binding recommendation does not make his sentence unreasonable. See United States v. Wrice,
834 Fed. Appx. 301, 302-03 (8th Cir. 2021) (per curiam). Accordingly, we affirm the judgment and grant counsel’s motion to withdraw. ______________________________ -2-
