United States Court of Appeals For the Eighth Circuit ___________________________ No. 12-3216 ___________________________ United States of America lllllllllllllllllllll Plaintiff - Appellee v. David Jerome Tensley, Jr. lllllllllllllllllllll Defendant - Appellant ____________ Appeal from United States District Court for the Southern District of Iowa - Davenport ____________ Submitted: May 24, 2013 Filed: May 31, 2013 [Unpublished] ____________ Before LOKEN, MELLOY, and BENTON, Circuit Judges. ____________ PER CURIAM. David Tensley directly appeals the sentence the district court1 imposed after revoking his supervised release. His counsel has moved to withdraw and has filed a brief questioning the substantive reasonableness of Tensley s revocation sentence. Upon careful review, we conclude that the district court did not impose a substantively unreasonable revocation sentence. See United States v. Miller, 557 F.3d 910, 915-16 (8th Cir. 2009) (discussing standards and procedures for reviewing district court s sentencing decision upon revocation of supervised release). Accordingly, we affirm. We also grant counsel s motion to withdraw. ______________________________ 1 The Honorable John A. Jarvey, United States District Judge for the Southern District of Iowa. -2-
