UNITED STATES of America, Plaintiff-Appellee, v. Richard HENNIS, Defendant-Appellant.
    No. 17-1157
    United States Court of Appeals, Tenth Circuit.
    Filed December 18, 2017
    (D.C. No. 1:16-CR-00U9-PAB-1) (D. Colorado)
    Paul Farley, Office of the United States Attorney, District of Colorado, Denver, CO, for Plaintiff-Appellee
    Kari S. Schmidt, Conlee, Schmidt & Emerson, Wichita, KS, for Defendant-Appellant
    Before MATHESON, PHILLIPS, and MORITZ, Circuit Judges.
   ORDER AND JUDGMENT

Per Curiam

Richard Hennis pleaded guilty to child pornography charges and was sentenced to 27 years in prison. He appeals that sentence even though his plea agreement included a broad waiver of his appellate rights. The government has moved to enforce the appeal waiver under United States v. Hahn, 359 F.3d 1315 (10th Cir. 2004) (en banc) (per curiam). Through his counsel, Mr. Hennis concedes that the waiver bars his appeal. Based on this concession and our independent review of the record, we grant the government’s motion and dismiss the appeal. 
      
      This panel has determined unanimously that oral argument would not materially assist in the determination of this appeal. See Fed. R. App. P. 34(a)(2); 10th Cir. R. 34.1(G). The case is therefore ordered submitted without ' oral argument. This order and judgment is not binding precedent, except under the doctrines of law of the case, res judicata, and collateral estoppel. It may be cited, however, for its persuasive value consistent with Fed. R. App. P. 32.1 and 10th Cir. R. 32.1.
