                                 ____________

Before WOLLMAN, ARNOLD, and MURPHY, Circuit Judges.
                         ____________

PER CURIAM.

      Juan Manjarrez-Sanchez directly appeals the sentence imposed by the district
     1
court after he pleaded guilty to conspiring to distribute methamphetamine. His

         1
       The Honorable Joseph F. Bataillon, United States District Judge for the
District of Nebraska.
counsel has moved to withdraw, and has filed a brief under Anders v. California, 386
U.S. 738 (1967), arguing that the sentence was unreasonable. We conclude that
Manjarrez-Sanchez’s appeal waiver should be enforced and prevents consideration
of his claim. See United States v. Scott, 627 F.3d 702, 704 (8th Cir. 2010) (de novo
review of validity and applicability of appeal waiver); United States v. Andis, 333
F.3d 886, 889-90 (8th Cir. 2003) (en banc) (court should enforce appeal waiver and
dismiss appeal where it falls within scope of waiver, plea agreement and waiver were
entered into knowingly and voluntarily, and no miscarriage of justice would result).
Having independently reviewed the record under Penson v. Ohio, 488 U.S. 75 (1988),
we find no nonfrivolous issues for appeal.

      According, we dismiss the appeal and we grant counsel’s motion to withdraw.
