OPINION

VANASKIE, Circuit Judge.

The principal issue presented on this appeal is whether a court may consider the factors listed in 18 U.S.C. § 3553(a)(2)(A) — “the seriousness of the offense, ... respect for the law, and ... just punishment for the offense” — when imposing a sentence for the violation of the conditions of supervised release. Concluding that a court is not prohibited from considering the § 3553(a)(2)(A) factors in the supervised release revocation context, we will affirm the District Court’s judgment.
