               Case: 17-12520     Date Filed: 04/18/2018   Page: 2 of 2

if it was made knowingly and voluntarily); United States v. Bascomb, 451 F.3d

1292, 1297 (11th Cir. 2006) (appeal waiver “cannot be vitiated or altered by

comments the court makes during sentencing”); United States v. Grinard-Henry,

399 F.3d 1294, 1296 (11th Cir. 2005) (waiver of the right to appeal includes

error).

          MOTION TO DISMISS GRANTED.
