PER CURIAM.

Jaime Nevarez appeals from the sentence the District Court imposed after he 1

pleaded guilty to a drug offense. His written plea agreement contained an appeal

waiver. After consideration of both the brief filed under Anders v. California, 386

U.S. 738 (1967), by Nevarez’s former appointed attorney and the supplemental brief

later filed by a retained attorney, we conclude that the appeal waiver is enforceable

as to all issues raised. See United States v. Andis, 333 F.3d 886, 889–92 (8th Cir.)

(en banc) (discussing enforcement of appeal waivers), cert. denied, 540 U.S. 997

(2003). In addition, out of an abundance of caution, we independently reviewed the

record, see Penson v. Ohio, 488 U.S. 75, 80 (1988), and we found no non-frivolous

issue for appeal. Accordingly, we dismiss this appeal.
