PER CURIAM:

              Israel Green, Jr., appeals his twenty-four month sentence

imposed after the district court terminated his supervised release

after several violations.                Green’s sentence was twelve months

higher than what was recommended by the Sentencing Guidelines based

on the violations and his criminal history category. He argues the

district court denied him due process because it imposed the higher

sentence without giving him notice.                 He also claims the sentence

was unreasonable.          We affirm.

              Green did not object to the sentence and thus any review

is for plain error.           Under the plain error standard, Green must

show:      (1) there was error; (2) the error was plain; and (3) the

error affected his substantial rights. United States v. Olano, 507

U.S. 725, 732-34 (1993).                 We find no error with the court’s

decision to sentence Green more than what was recommended by the

Guidelines without giving him notice.                See United States v. Shaw,

180 F.3d 920 (8th Cir. 1999); United States v. McClanahan, 136 F.3d

1146 (7th Cir. 1998).         The Supreme Court in Gall v. United States,

128   S.     Ct.   586    (2007),   did    not     impose    this   new   sentencing

requirement.

              Appellate review of a district court’s imposition of a

sentence is for abuse of discretion.                Gall, 128 S. Ct. at 597; see

also United States v. Pauley, 511 F.3d 468, 473 (4th Cir. 2007).

We    must    first      ensure   that    the     district   court   committed   no


                                          - 2 -
procedural error, such as “failing to calculate (or improperly

calculating) the Guidelines range, treating the Guidelines as

mandatory, failing to consider the § 3553(a) factors, selecting a

sentence based on clearly erroneous facts, or failing to adequately

explain the chosen sentence — including an explanation for any

deviation from the Guideline range.”          Gall, 128 S. Ct. at 597.

            If there are no procedural errors, we then consider the

substantive    reasonableness     of    the   sentence.      Id.   at   597.

“Substantive reasonableness review entails taking into account the

totality of the circumstances, including the extent of any variance

from the Guidelines range.”        Pauley, 511 F.3d at 473 (internal

quotation marks omitted).    While the court may presume a sentence

within the Guidelines range to be reasonable, it may not presume a

sentence outside the range to be unreasonable.        Gall, 128 S. Ct. at

597.   Moreover, it must give due deference to the district court’s

decision that the § 3553(a) factors justify imposing a variant

sentence and to its determination regarding the extent of any

variance.     Even if the reviewing court would have reached a

different   sentencing   result    on   its   own,   this   fact   alone   is

insufficient to justify reversal of the district court.             Pauley,

511 F.3d at 473-74.

            Because we find Green’s notice argument to be without

merit, we find no procedural error at sentencing.           We further find

the district court sufficiently explained its reasoning for giving


                                  - 3 -
a sentence higher than what was recommended under the Guidelines.

We find no abuse of discretion.

           Accordingly, we affirm the sentence.         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
