PER CURIAM.
Guadalupe Martinez appeals the 46-month prison sentence imposed by the
district court1 after he pleaded guilty to drug charges. Counsel has filed a brief under
1
The Honorable John M. Gerrard, United States District Judge for the District
of Nebraska.
Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738 (1967), and seeks leave to withdraw. For reversal,
counsel argues that the sentence imposed was greater than necessary to accomplish
the goals of sentencing. Having carefully reviewed the record, we conclude that the
sentence, falling at the bottom of the uncontested Guidelines range, was not
substantively unreasonable. See United States v. Feemster, 572 F.3d 455, 461, 464
(8th Cir. 2009) (en banc). Further, we find no nonfrivolous issues for appeal. See
Penson v. Ohio, 488 U.S. 75 (1988). Accordingly, we grant counsel’s motion to
withdraw, and we affirm.
