PER CURIAM:
Burton Arnold Coker appeals the district court’s order
revoking his supervised release and sentencing him to eight months’
imprisonment. Coker’s attorney has filed a brief pursuant to
Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738 (1967), stating that there are
no meritorious issues for appeal, but suggesting that the district
court erred by revoking and sentencing Coker based on supervised
release violations. Coker has been informed of his right to file
a pro se supplemental brief, but has not done so.
Pursuant to Anders, we have examined the entire record
and find no meritorious issues for appeal. Coker admitted to
violations of his supervised release, and we find his sentence was
reasonable. Accordingly, we affirm the district court’s judgment.
This court requires that counsel inform her client, in writing of
his right to petition the Supreme Court of the United States for
further review. If the client requests that such 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 the client. 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
