PER CURIAM.

Jeremy Thomas Traylor appeals the sentence the district court1 imposed after he pleaded guilty to a drug offense. His counsel has moved to withdraw and has filed

1 The Honorable P.K. Holmes, III, United States District Judge for the Western District of Arkansas. a brief under Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738 (1967), challenging the sentence as substantively unreasonable.

Having reviewed the record under a deferential abuse-of-discretion standard of review, see Gall v. United States, 552 U.S. 38, 41, 51 (2007), we conclude the district court did not impose an unreasonable sentence. The court properly considered the factors set forth in 18 U.S.C. § 3553(a), and there is no indication that the court overlooked a relevant 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. Feemster, 572 F.3d 455, 461-62 (8th Cir. 2009) (en banc); see also United States v. Richart, 662 F.3d 1037, 1054 (8th Cir. 2011); United States v. Lazarski, 560 F.3d 731, 733 (8th Cir. 2009). We have independently reviewed the record under Penson v. Ohio, 488 U.S. 75 (1988), and have found no non-frivolous issues for appeal.

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