Before WILLIAM PRYOR, MARTIN and JILL PRYOR, Circuit Judges.

BY THE COURT:

      The Government’s motion to dismiss this appeal pursuant to the appeal

waiver in Appellant’s plea agreement is GRANTED. See United States v. Bushert,

997 F.2d 1343, 1350-51 (11th Cir. 1993) (sentence appeal waiver will be enforced
              Case: 17-13194    Date Filed: 01/29/2018   Page: 2 of 2

if it was made knowingly and voluntarily); Williams v. United States, 396 F.3d
1340, 1342 (11th Cir. 2005) (defendant cannot avoid application of an appeal

waiver by recasting a sentencing challenge as an ineffective-assistance-of-counsel

claim).
