PER CURIAM.
Gene Clark pleaded guilty to conspiracy to transport stolen goods, and was
sentenced to 30 months in prison and 3 years supervised release. At a revocation
hearing, Clark admitted violating the conditions of his supervised release. The district
court1 revoked supervised release and imposed a new sentence of 12 months
imprisonment and 2 years supervised release, commenting on Clark’s numerous
violations, the need for incarceration as punishment and the lack of progress toward
satisfying his restitution obligation. Clark appeals this sentence.
1
The Honorable James E. Gritzner, United States District Judge for the Southern
District of Iowa.
Both the prison term and the supervised release term were within authorized
limits, and the district court considered appropriate factors in imposing the revocation
sentence. See 18 U.S.C. § 3583(e)(3), (h). We conclude that Clark’s sentence is not
unreasonable. See United States v. Tyson, 413 F.3d 824, 825-26 (8th Cir. 2005)
(standard of review).
Accordingly, we affirm, and we also grant counsel’s motion to withdraw.
