Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.2 PER CURIAM: Raymond O. Leech appeals the 151

- month sentence imposed by the district court following this court’s remand for resentencing. On appeal, Leech’s counsel filed a b rief pursuant
to Anders v. California , 386 U.S. 738 (1967), asserting that there are no meritorious grounds for appeal but questioning the reasonableness of the sentence. Leech filed a pro se supplemental brief, in which he raises several challenges to hi s conviction and sentence , including a challenge to the district court’s determination of the quantity of drugs for which he was held accountable for sentencing purposes . Finding no error, we affirm. Both Leech and his counsel question the reasonablen ess of Leech’s sentence. In reviewing a sentence, we must first ensure that the district court did not commit any significant procedural error, such as failing to properly calculate the applicable Guidelines range, failing to consider the 18 U.S.C.
§ 3553 (a) (2006) factors, or failing to adequately explain the
sentence. Gall v. United States , 552 U.S. 38, 51 (2007). Once we have determined that there is no procedural error, we must then consider the substantive reasonableness of the sentence, “tak[ing] i nto account the totality of the circumstances.” Id. If the sentence imposed is within the appropriate Sentencing Guidelines range, we presume it is reasonable. United States v.3 Mendoza

- Mendoza , 597 F.3d 212, 216 (4th Cir. 2010). Th is presumption may be rebutted by a showing “that the sentence is unreasonable when measured against the § 3553(a) factors.” United States v. Montes

- Pineda , 445 F.3d 375, 379 (4th Cir. 2006) (internal quotation marks omitted). Upon review, we conclude that the district court committed no procedural or substantive error in sentencing Leech to 151 months’ imprisonment, a sentence within the applicable Sentencing Guidelines range. See United States v. Lynn , 592 F.3d 572, 577 (4th Cir. 2010) (providing standard of review); Unite d States v. Williams , 29 F.3d 172, 174

- 75 (4th Cir. 1994) (holding that defendant’s stipulation to drug amounts prior to sentencing waived right to appeal issue). Turning to Leech’s remaining pro se issues, we conclude that the district court permitted L eech to fully allocute at the resentencing hearing, as was his right
. United States v. Muhammad , 478 F.3d 247, 250 (4th Cir. 2007) (holding that defendant “ ha[s] a renewed ri ght to allocute at resentencing ” )
. Additionally, Leech is foreclosed from challenging his conviction in this appeal, because we affirmed his conviction in a prior proceeding and no exceptions exist permitting Leech to now raise th e se foreclosed claims. See United States v. Bell , 5 F.3d 64, 66

- 67 (4th Cir. 1993) (discussing mand ate rule)
.4 In accordance with Anders , we have reviewed the record in this case and have found no meritorious issues for appeal. We therefore affirm the dis trict court’s judgment. This court requires that counsel inform Leech, in writing, of his right to petition the Supreme Court of the United States for further review. If Leech requests that a petition be filed, but counsel believes that such a petition would be frivolous, counsel may move in this court for leave to withdraw from representation.
Co unsel’s motion must state that a copy thereof was served on Leech. We dispense with oral argument because the facts and legal conclusions are adequately presented in the materials before the court and argument would not aid the decisional
process.
