PER CURIAM.
Gregorio Aguilar, II, appeals a within-Guidelines-range sentence of 24
months in prison for violating the conditions of supervised release. He challenges
the substantive reasonableness of the sentence, and his attorney seeks permission to
withdraw.
We conclude that Aguilar’s sentence is substantively reasonable. See United
States v. Miller, 557 F.3d 910, 917 (8th Cir. 2009) (reviewing the reasonableness of
a revocation sentence for an abuse of discretion); United States v. Perkins, 526 F.3d
1107, 1110 (8th Cir. 2008) (stating that a within-Guidelines-range sentence is
presumptively reasonable). The record establishes that the district court 1 sufficiently
considered the statutory sentencing factors, 18 U.S.C. §§ 3553(a), 3583(e)(3), and
did not rely on an improper factor or commit a clear error of judgment. See United
States v. Larison, 432 F.3d 921, 923–24 (8th Cir. 2006). Accordingly, we affirm the
judgment and grant counsel permission to withdraw.
