HENRY ALAN LEE, Defendant - Appellant. Appeal from the United States District Court for the Middle District of North Carolina, at Greensboro. Loretta Copeland Biggs, District Judge. (1:15-cr-00281-LCB-1) Submitted: December 30, 2016 Decided: January 10,2017 Before TRAXLER, KING, and SHEDD, Circuit Judges. Affirmed by unpublished per curiam opinion. Louis C. Allen, Federal Public Defender, Eric D. Placke, First Assistant Federal Public Defender, Greensboro, North Carolina, for Appellant. Ripley Rand, United States Attorney, Eric L. Iverson, Assistant United States Attorney, Greensboro, North Carolina, for Appellee. Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit. Appeal: 16-4217 Doc: 35 Filed: 01/10/2017 Pg: 2 of 3 PER CURIAM: Henry Allen Lee pled guilty to receipt of child pornography, in violation of 18 U.S.C. § 2252A(a)(2)(A), (b)(1) (2012). The district court varied below the Sentencing Guidelines range and sentenced Lee to 121 months’ imprisonment. Lee now appeals, challenging the substantive reasonableness of the sentence. Finding no error, we affirm. We review the reasonableness of a sentence “under a deferential abuse-of-discretion standard.” Gall v. United States, 552 U.S. 38, 41 (2007). Because Lee does not assert any procedural sentencing error, we review only the substantive reasonableness of the sentence, considering “the totality of the circumstances, including the extent of any variance from the Guidelines range.” Id.
