United States v. Harper
United States v. Harper
Opinion of the Court
Christopher Harper appeals the judgment the district court
This argument, which we construe as an Eighth Amendment challenge, fails. Cf. United States v. Prior, 107 F.3d 654, 659-60 (8th Cir.) (finding no Eighth Amendment violation for defendant’s harsh life sentence following guilty plea to methamphetamine offense), cert. denied, 522 U.S. 824, 118 S.Ct. 84, 139 L.Ed.2d 41 (1997).
Having carefully reviewed the record under Penson v. Ohio, 488 U.S. 75, 80, 109 S.Ct. 346, 102 L.Ed.2d 300 (1988), we find no nonfrivolous issues.
Accordingly, we affirm, and we grant counsel’s motion to withdraw.
. The Honorable E. Richard Webber, United States District Judge for the Eastern District of Missouri.
