Carolina, for Appellee.


Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.
PER CURIAM:

       Raymond Ronald Jennings appeals the district court’s judgment revoking his

supervised release and sentencing him to 13 months’ imprisonment. Jennings’ attorney

has filed a brief pursuant to Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738 (1967), in which he avers

that there are no meritorious issues for appeal but questioning the reasonableness of

Jennings’ sentence. Jennings has filed a pro se supplemental brief. We affirm.

       “A district court has broad discretion when imposing a sentence upon revocation

of supervised release.” United States v. Webb, 738 F.3d 638, 640 (4th Cir. 2013). We

“will affirm a revocation sentence if it is within the statutory maximum and is not

‘plainly unreasonable.’” Id. (quoting United States v. Crudup, 461 F.3d 433, 438 (4th

Cir. 2006)). “When reviewing whether a revocation sentence is plainly unreasonable, we

must first determine whether it is unreasonable at all.” United States v. Thompson, 595

F.3d 544, 546 (4th Cir. 2010). A sentence is substantively reasonable if the district court

states a proper basis for concluding the defendant should receive the sentence imposed,

up to the statutory maximum. Crudup, 461 F.3d at 440. A sentence within the applicable

Policy Statement range under Chapter 7 of the Sentencing Guidelines is presumed

reasonable. United States v. Padgett, 788 F.3d 370, 373 (4th Cir. 2015). Applying these

standards, we readily conclude that Jennings’ within-range, 13-month sentence is neither

procedurally nor substantively unreasonable.




                                            2
       In accordance with Anders, we have reviewed the entire record in this case and

have found no meritorious issues for appeal. * We therefore affirm the district court’s

judgment. This court requires that counsel inform Jennings, in writing, of the right to

petition the Supreme Court of the United States for further review. If Jennings 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 Jennings. We dispense

with oral argument because the facts and legal contentions are adequately presented in

the materials before this court and argument would not aid the decisional process.

                                                                               AFFIRMED




       *
        We have considered the issues Jennings raises in his pro se supplemental brief
and find that he is not entitled to relief on those claims.
