United States of America Plaintiff - Appellee v. Darron Van Hill Defendant - Appellant


Appeal from United States District Court for the Southern District of Iowa - Des Moines [Unpublished] Before GRUENDER, BEAM, and SHEPHERD, Circuit Judges. PER CURIAM.

Darron Van Hill appeals after he conditionally pleaded guilty to a firearms offense, and the district court imposed a 24-month prison sentence. His counsel has moved to withdraw, and has filed a brief under Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738 (1967), challenging the district court's denial of a motion to suppress. Upon careful review, we conclude that the district court properly denied the motion. See United States v. Donnelly, 475 F.3d 946, 951 (8th Cir. 2007) (standard of review); see also United States v. Shackleford, 830 F.3d 751, 753 (8th Cir. 2016) (stating that probable cause to believe that an automobile contains contraband or evidence of criminal activity justifies the warrantless search of the automobile and seizure of the contraband).

The Honorable Robert W. Pratt, United States District Judge for the Southern District of Iowa.

Finally, having reviewed the record independently under Penson v. Ohio, 488 U.S. 75, 80 (1988), we find no non-frivolous issues. Accordingly, we affirm, and we grant counsel's motion to withdraw.
