Before LOKEN, COLLOTON, and KELLY, Circuit Judges. ____________

PER CURIAM.

Quavo Williams appeals the sentence imposed by the district court1 after the court vacated one count of conviction and resentenced him. His counsel has moved

1 The Honorable Ronnie L. White, United States District Judge for the Eastern District of Missouri. to withdraw, and has filed a brief pursuant to Anders v. California, 36 U.S. 738 (1967), arguing that the sentence is substantively unreasonable.

Upon careful review, we conclude that the district court did not err in imposing the below-Guidelines sentence that Williams received. See United States v. Feemster, 572 F.3d 455, 461 (8th Cir. 2009) (en banc); United States v. Moore, 581 F.3d 681, 684 (8th Cir. 2009) (per curiam). We have also independently reviewed the record under Penson v. Ohio, 488 U.S. 75 (1988), and have found no non-frivolous issues for appeal.

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