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

if it was made knowingly and voluntarily); United States v. Grinard-Henry, 399
F.3d 1294, 1296 (11th Cir. 2005) (waiver of the right to appeal includes waiver of

the right to appeal difficult or debatable legal issues or even blatant error).
