PER CURIAM.
Isaias Perez appeals the 130-month sentence the district court1 imposed upon
his guilty plea to two counts of distributing methamphetamine after having previously
been convicted of a felony drug offense, in violation of 21 U.S.C. §§ 841(a)(1),
(b)(1)(B), and 851. His counsel has moved to withdraw and has filed a brief under
Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738 (1967), challenging the reasonableness of the
sentence.

We conclude that the district court committed no procedural error and imposed
a substantively reasonable sentence. See Gall v. United States, 552 U.S. 38, 51 (2007)
(in reviewing sentence, appellate court first ensures that district court committed no
significant procedural error, then considers substantive reasonableness of sentence
under abuse-of-discretion standard; if sentence is within applicable Guidelines range,
appellate court may apply presumption of reasonableness); United States v. Haack,
403 F.3d 997, 1004 (8th Cir. 2005) (describing abuse of discretion).
Having reviewed the record under Penson v. Ohio, 488 U.S. 75 (1988), we have
found no nonfrivolous issues. Accordingly, we grant counsel’s motion to withdraw,
and we affirm.
