United States Eighth Circuit

A sentence for possession of child pornography and criminal forfeiture is affirmed where: 1) there was no jurisdiction to address an issue of the district court's denial of defendant's motion to withdraw his guilty plea, as defendant's notice of appeal was premature on that issue; 2) the district court did not plainly err in failing to consider defendant's purported mental impairments at the sentencing hearing; and 3) the resulting sentence was not unreasonable.
