PER CURIAM:
Antwon M. Quarles pled guilty to bank robbery and was
sentenced to fifty-seven months imprisonment, a sentence within the
statutory maximum and at the low end of the sentencing guidelines
range. Quarles appealed, and counsel filed a brief pursuant to
Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738 (1967), contending that there
were no meritorious issues for appeal but seeking review of
Quarles’ sentence. Although informed of his right to do so,
Quarles has not filed a pro se supplemental brief.
At sentencing, the district court considered the properly
calculated advisory guideline range and the factors set forth in 18
U.S.C.A. § 3553(a) (West 2000 & Supp. 2006). Quarles did not
object to his sentence or the calculation of the guideline range
below, and he provides no reason to determine that his sentence is
unreasonable. Accordingly, we conclude that there was no
sentencing error and that Quarles’ sentence is reasonable. See
United States v. Green, 436 F.3d 449, 457 (4th Cir.), cert. denied,
126 S. Ct. 2309 (2006).
In accordance with Anders, we have reviewed the record in
this case and have found no meritorious issues for appeal. We
therefore affirm Quarles’ conviction and sentence. This court
requires that counsel inform Quarles, in writing, of the right to
petition the Supreme Court of the United States for further review.
If Quarles requests that a petition be filed, but counsel believes

that such a petition would be frivolous, then counsel may move in
this court for leave to withdraw from representation. Counsel’s
motion must state that a copy thereof was served on Quarles.
We dispense with oral argument because the facts and
legal contentions are adequately presented in the materials before
the court and argument would not aid the decisional process.
AFFIRMED
