Opinion

United States Court of Appeals For the Eighth Circuit ___________________________ No. 22-3361 ___________________________ United States of America Plaintiff Appellee v. Adam Randal Shouse Defendant Appellant ____________ Appeal from United States District Court for the Southern District of Iowa - Eastern ____________ Submitted: March 27, 2023 Filed: March 31, 2023 [Unpublished] ____________ Before GRUENDER, STRAS, and KOBES, Circuit Judges. ____________ PER CURIAM.

Adam Shouse appeals after the district court1 revoked his supervised release and sentenced him to 12 months in prison, followed by 15 months of supervised The Honorable Stephanie M. Rose, Chief Judge, United States District Court for the Southern District of Iowa. release. His counsel has moved to withdraw and has filed a brief arguing that the sentence is substantively unreasonable.

After careful review of the record, we conclude that the district court did not abuse its discretion in imposing the revocation sentence. See United States v. Miller, 557 F.3d 910, 917-18 (8th Cir. 2009). There is no indication that the district court overlooked a relevant 18 U.S.C. § 3553(a) factor, gave significant weight to an improper or irrelevant factor, or committed a clear error of judgment in weighing the relevant factors. See United States v. Larison, 432 F.3d 921, 923-24 (8th Cir. 2006); see also United States v. Perkins, 526 F.3d 1107, 1110 (8th Cir. 2008) (holding that a revocation sentence within the Guidelines range is accorded a presumption of reasonableness on appeal).

Accordingly, we grant counsel’s motion to withdraw, and affirm. ______________________________
