PER CURIAM.

Juan Olivares appeals from the sentence the District Court imposed after he 1

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

The Honorable Gary A. Fenner, United States District Judge for the Western 1

District of Missouri.

waiver. His counsel has moved to withdraw and filed a brief in accordance with

Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738 (1967), arguing that the sentence was

unreasonable. We conclude that the appeal waiver is enforceable. See United States

v. Scott, 627 F.3d 702, 704 (8th Cir. 2010) (reviewing de novo “the validity and

applicability” of an appeal waiver); 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). We have independently reviewed the record under Penson v. Ohio,

488 U.S. 75 (1988), and have found no non-frivolousissuesfor appeal. Accordingly,

we grant counsel’s motion to withdraw, and we dismiss this appeal.
