UNITED STATES of America Plaintiff-Appellee v. Guillermo Chan SANCHEZ, also known as Guillermo Sanchez Chan Defendant-Appellant
    No. 17-1715
    United States Court of Appeals, Eighth Circuit.
    Submitted: November 1, 2017
    Filed: November 9, 2017
    Amy L. Jennings, Assistant U.S. Attorney, U.S. Attorney’s Office, Des Moines, IA, for Plaintiff-Appellee
    Guillermo Chan Sanchez, Pro Se
    Before LOKEN, MURPHY, and SHEPHERD, Circuit Judges.
   PER CURIAM.

Guillermo Chan Sanchez directly appeals the sentence the district court imposed after he pleaded guilty to immigration and drug offenses. His counsel has moved for leave to withdraw, and has filed a brief under Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738, 87 S.Ct. 1396, 18 L.Ed.2d 493 (1967), suggesting that the sentence is substantively unreasonable.

After careful review, we conclude that the district court did not impose a substantively unreasonable sentence. See United States v. Salazar-Aleman, 741 F.3d 878, 881 (8th Cir. 2013) (discussing appellate review of sentencing decisions). In addition, having independently reviewed the record under Penson v. Ohio, 488 U.S. 75, 109 S.Ct. 346, 102 L.Ed.2d 300 (1988), we find no nonfrivolous issues for appeal. Accordingly, we affirm the judgment, and we grant counsel’s motion to withdraw. 
      
      , The Honorable Stephanie M. Rose, United States District Judge for the Southern District of Iowa.
