District of Iowa.

in prison and thirty-sixmonths ofsupervised release. On appeal, Sweeney argues that

the sentence is unreasonable. In addition, his counsel has moved for leave to

withdraw.

Reviewing Sweeney’s revocation sentence for an abuse of discretion, see

United States v. Hum, 766 F.3d 925, 927 (8th Cir. 2014) (per curiam), we conclude

that the sentence is not unreasonable, as both the prison term and the supervisedrelease term are within statutory limitations, and the prison term is within the

applicable advisory Guidelines range, see United States v. Petrekis, 551 F.3d 822,

824 (8th Cir. 2009). We affirm the judgment, and we grant counsel’s motion to

withdraw.
