Opinion:
MEMORANDUM
Harpal Singh, aka Gary Sukhwal, appeals the sentence imposed following his guilty plea to attempted kidnapping while impersonating a federal law enforcement officer in violation of 18 U.S.C. § 1201(a)(1), (a)(3), (d). Singh, who was sentenced under the mandatory Sentencing Guidelines before the Supreme Court its issued its decision in United States v. Booker, — U.S. -, 125 S.Ct. 738, 160 L.Ed.2d 621 (2005), asserts that the case should be remanded for resentencing under the post-Booker advisory Guidelines.
We dismiss the appeal because Singh, in his plea agreement, knowingly and voluntarily waived his right to appeal. See United States v. Cortez-Arias, 403 F.3d 1111 (9th Cir.2005), as amended, 425 F.3d 547 (9th Cir.2005) (holding that pre-Booker waiver of right to appeal precludes appellate relief under Booker).
DISMISSED.
