Appeal from United States District Court for the Eastern District of Missouri - St. Louis ____________
Submitted: May 2, 2025 Filed: May 7, 2025 [Unpublished] ____________
Before BENTON, ERICKSON, and KOBES, Circuit Judges. ____________
PER CURIAM. LaKentae Roberson appeals after the district court 1 revoked his supervised release and sentenced him to 11 months in prison. Having jurisdiction under 28 U.S.C. § 1291, this court affirms.
Roberson’s counsel has moved for leave to withdraw and has filed a brief challenging the substantive reasonableness of the sentence. Upon careful review, this court concludes that the district court did not abuse its discretion, as there is no indication that it failed to consider 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 relevant factors. See United States v. Miller, 557 F.3d 910, 914, 916 (8th Cir. 2009) (standard of review; district court need only find a single violation to revoke supervised release). Further, the revocation sentence is within the statutory maximum. See 18 U.S.C. § 3583(e)(3) (maximum revocation prison term is 2 years if underlying offense is Class C felony).
The judgment is affirmed, and counsel’s motion to withdraw is granted. ______________________________
