Terrell Simpson challenges the district court’s1 finding that he violated the conditions of his supervised release and argues that the district court abused its

Additionally, his counsel has moved to withdraw. We conclude that the district court did not clearly err in its factual findings, or abuse its discretion in sentencing Simpson. See United States v. Miller, 557 F.3d 910, 914-917 (8th Cir. 2009) (standards of review); United States v. Meyer, 483 F.3d 865, 869 (8th Cir. 2007) (discussing reliability of sweat-patch results).

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