OPINION

Pursuant to a guilty plea, Wu Feng Zhang pled guilty to counterfeiting in violation of 18 U.S.C. § 3742(a) (1994). The district court sentenced him to a 12 month term of imprisonment for the counterfeiting charge followed by a 21 month term of imprisonment for revocation of probation. Zhang timely appealed. Zhang’s attorney has filed a brief in accordance with Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738, 87 S.Ct. 1396, 18 L.Ed.2d 493 (1967). Counsel states there are no meritorious issues for appeal, but contends on Zhang’s behalf that the district court abused its discretion by imposing a 12 month sentence for the counterfeiting violation and that the district court’s 21 month sentence imposed for revocation of probation was in violation of law or was plainly unreasonable. Zhang was informed of his right to file a supplemental brief but did not file a brief.

Zhang’s 12 month counterfeiting sentence was within the properly calculated guideline range of 6-12 months and therefore is not appealable. See United States v. Porter, 909 F.2d 789, 794 (4th Cir. 1990). Moreover, the district court properly considered the counterfeiting offense that gave rise to the revocation of probation in fashioning the sentence for that revocation. See 18 U.S.C. § 3565(a)(2) (1994); United States v. Schaefer, 120 F.3d 505, 507 (4th Cir. 1997). Further, the court properly found, in its discretion, that an upward departure was warranted for the revocation of probation. See United States Sentencing Commission, Guidelines Manual, § 7B1.4, comment. (n.4) (Nov. 2000).

Accordingly, we affirm the judgment of the district court. We have examined the entire record in this case in accordance with the requirements of Anders and find *196 no meritorious issues for appeal. This court requires that counsel inform his client, in -writing, of his right to petition the Supreme Court of the United States for further review. If the client requests that a petition be filed, but counsel believes that such a petition would be frivolous, then counsel may move in this court for leave to withdraw from representation. Counsel’s motion must state that a copy thereof was served on the client. Finally, we dispense with oral argument, because the facts and legal contentions are adequately presented in the materials before the court and argument would not aid the decisional process.

AFFIRMED.
