Before:        SCHROEDER, PREGERSON, and RAWLINSON, Circuit Judges.

guilty-plea conviction for conspiring to distribute and to possess with intent to

distribute 500 grams or more of cocaine, in violation of 21 U.S.C. §§ 841(b)(1)(B),

846, and possession of an unregistered firearm, in violation of 26 U.S.C. § 5861(d).

We dismiss in light of the valid appeal waiver.

       Brown waived his right to appeal the sentence imposed by the district court

and has failed to show that the waiver is invalid. See United States v. Bibler, 495

F.3d 621, 624 (9th Cir. 2007).

       DISMISSED.
