United States of America Plaintiff - Appellee v. Logan Alan Wilson Defendant-Appellant


Unpublished

Submitted: April 18, 2024

Appeal from United States District Court for the Southern District of Iowa - Central

Before SHEPHERD, STRAS, and KOBES, Circuit Judges.

PER CURIAM.

Logan Wilson received a 72-month sentence after he pleaded guilty to a firearms offense. See 18 U.S.C. § 922(g)(3) (drug user in possession of a firearm). An Anders brief suggests that the sentence is substantively unreasonable. See Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738 (1967).

We conclude otherwise. See United States v. Feemster, 572 F.3d 455, 461 (8th Cir. 2009) (en banc) (reviewing the reasonableness of a sentence for an abuse of discretion). The record establishes that the district court sufficiently considered the statutory sentencing factors, 18 U.S.C. § 3553(a), and did not rely on an improper factor or commit a clear error of judgment. See United States v. McDaniels, 19 F.4th 1065, 1067 (8th Cir. 2021) (per curiam) (explaining that the district court has "wide latitude to weigh the relevant sentencing factors" and "weighing [them] differently than a defendant would have preferred does not alone justify reversal" (citation omitted)).

The Honorable Rebecca Goodgame Ebinger, United States District Judge for the Southern District of Iowa.

We have also independently reviewed the record and conclude that no other non-frivolous issues exist. See Penson v. Ohio, 488 U.S. 75, 82-83 (1988). We accordingly affirm the judgment of the district court and grant counsel permission to withdraw.
