 Before EID, CARSON, and FEDERICO, Circuit Judges.
                    _________________________________

       In the criminal case underlying appeal number 23-8059, Denver Lee John

 pleaded guilty to a two-count Information. In the criminal case underlying appeal

       *
          This order and judgment is not binding precedent, except under the doctrines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.

 number 23-8060, Mr. John pleaded guilty to four counts in a superseding indictment.

 He entered into a plea agreement that covered both criminal cases. Despite an appeal

 waiver in his plea agreement, he filed these appeals, which were consolidated for

 procedural purposes. The government moves to enforce the appeal waiver in both

 appeals pursuant to United States v. Hahn, 359 F.3d 1315, 1328 (10th Cir. 2004)

 (en banc). In response, Mr. John states he “does not contest the government’s

 motion.” Resp. at 1. Based on Mr. John’s non-opposition, we grant the

 government’s motion to enforce the appeal waiver and dismiss these appeals.
