United States Court of Appeals For the Eighth Circuit ___________________________ No. 20-3045 ___________________________ United States of America lllllllllllllllllllllPlaintiff - Appellee v. Kasey Lee Cassady lllllllllllllllllllllDefendant - Appellant ____________ Appeal from United States District Court for the Southern District of Iowa - Central ____________ Submitted: June 1, 2021 Filed: June 9, 2021 [Unpublished] ____________ Before COLLOTON, SHEPHERD, and GRASZ, Circuit Judges. ____________ PER CURIAM. Kasey Cassady appeals the sentence the district court1 imposed after he pled guilty to drug and firearm offenses. His counsel has moved to withdraw and has filed a brief under Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738 (1967). After careful review, we conclude the district court did not abuse its discretion in sentencing Cassady. See United States v. Feemster, 572 F.3d 455, 461 (8th Cir. 2009) (en banc) (reviewing sentence under deferential abuse-of-discretion standard). Furthermore, having independently reviewed the record under Penson v. Ohio, 488 U.S. 75 (1988), we find no nonfrivolous issues for appeal. Accordingly, we grant counsel’s motion and affirm. ______________________________ 1 The Honorable Rebecca Goodgame Ebinger, United States District Judge for the Southern District of Iowa. -2-
