Appeal from the United States District Court for the District of Arizona Stephen M. McNamee, District Judge, Presiding.
Before KLEINFELD, McKEOWN, and FISHER, Circuit Judges.
This disposition is not appropriate for publication and may not be cited to or by the courts of this circuit except as may be provided by Ninth Circuit Rule 36-3.
Francisco Aguayo-Mendoza appeals his conviction by guilty plea and sentence for one count of illegal reentry after deportation, in violation of 8 U.S.C. § 1326(a), with a sentencing enhancement pursuant to 8 U.S.C. § 1326(b). Aguayo-Mendoza's attorney has filed a brief pursuant to Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738, 87 S.Ct. 1396, 18 L.Ed.2d 493 (1967), and a motion to withdraw on the ground that she failed to discover any arguable issues on appeal.
Aguayo-Mendoza's plea agreement contains an express waiver of the right to appeal the judgment and sentence. Because our independent review of the record indicates that the plea agreement, including the waiver of the right to appeal, was entered knowingly and voluntarily, United States v. Aguilar-Muniz, 156 F.3d 974, 976 (9th Cir.1998), we enforce the waiver, GRANT counsel's motion to withdraw, and DISMISS the appeal.
