United States v. Derek Caquelin
Opinion
United States Court of Appeals For the Eighth Circuit ___________________________ No. 24-1986 ___________________________ United States of America lllllllllllllllllllllPlaintiff - Appellee v. Derek Michael Caquelin lllllllllllllllllllllDefendant - Appellant ____________ Appeal from United States District Court for the Western District of Arkansas - Fayetteville ____________ Submitted: September 16, 2024 Filed: September 19, 2024 [Unpublished] ____________ Before LOKEN, GRUENDER, and SHEPHERD, Circuit Judges. ____________ PER CURIAM.
Derek Caquelin appeals after the district court1 revoked his supervised release and sentenced him to 6 months in prison. His counsel has moved to withdraw and has filed a brief challenging the substantive reasonableness of the revocation sentence.
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, 915-17 (8th Cir. 2009). The revocation sentence is within the Guidelines range and afforded a presumption of substantive reasonableness on appeal. See United States v. Weems, 76 F.4th 1153, 1156 (8th Cir. 2023). Moreover, there is no indication that the district court overlooked a relevant 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).
Accordingly, we grant counsel’s motion to withdraw and affirm. ______________________________
The Honorable Timothy L. Brooks, United States District Judge for the Western District of Arkansas.
