Appeal from United States District Court for the Southern District of Iowa - Central ____________

Submitted: February 25, 2022 Filed: March 3, 2022 [Unpublished] ____________

Before LOKEN, ERICKSON, and STRAS, Circuit Judges. ____________

PER CURIAM.

Anene Okolie received a 30-month prison sentence after he pleaded guilty to distributing heroin. See 21 U.S.C. § 841(a)(1), (b)(1)(C). In an Anders brief, Okolie’s counsel questions the drug-quantity calculation and suggests that the overall sentence is substantively unreasonable. See Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738 (1967).

We conclude that the district court’s1 drug-quantity calculation was not clearly erroneous. See United States v. Yellow Horse, 774 F.3d 493, 496 (8th Cir. 2014). We also conclude that Okolie received a substantively reasonable sentence. See United States v. Feemster, 572 F.3d 455, 461–62 (8th Cir. 2009) (en banc) (reviewing the reasonableness of a sentence under “a deferential abuse-of-discretion standard” (quotation marks omitted)). The record establishes that the district court sufficiently considered the statutory sentencing factors, 18 U.S.C. § 3553(a), and did not rely on an improper factor or commit a clear error of judgment. See United States v. Larison, 432 F.3d 921, 923–24 (8th Cir. 2006); see also United States v. Mangum, 625 F.3d 466, 469–70 (8th Cir. 2010).

Finally, we have independently reviewed the record and conclude that no other non-frivolous issues exist. See Penson v. Ohio, 488 U.S. 75, 82–83 (1988). We accordingly affirm the judgment of the district court and grant counsel permission to withdraw. ______________________________
