       2                      Opinion of the Court                 21-12788

       Before WILSON, LUCK, and BLACK, Circuit Judges.
       PER CURIAM:
              The Government’s motion to dismiss this appeal pursuant
       to the appeal waiver in Appellant’s plea agreement is GRANTED.
       See United States v. Boyd, 975 F.3d 1185, 1192 (11th Cir. 2020) (stat-
       ing the “touchstone” for assessing whether an appeal waiver was
       made knowingly and voluntarily is whether the court clearly con-
       veyed to the defendant that he was giving up his right to appeal un-
       der most circumstances);United States v. Bushert, 997 F.2d 1343,
       1350-51 (11th Cir. 1993) (stating a sentence appeal waiver will be
       enforced if it was made knowingly and voluntarily).
