Before WOLLMAN, FAGG, and MORRIS SHEPPARD ARNOLD, Circuit Judges.
                           ___________

PER CURIAM.

      Kerry Scott Sutton appeals the sentence imposed by the district court* after
Sutton pleaded guilty to being a felon in possession of a firearm, in violation of 18
U.S.C. § 922(g)(1). In a written plea agreement, Sutton waived the right to appeal his
sentence, with exceptions not applicable here. Sutton does not argue his appeal
waiver was unknowing or involuntary, or enforcement would result in a miscarriage

District of Missouri.
of justice. We thus enforce Sutton’s appeal waiver and dismiss his appeal. See
United States v. Blue Coat, 340 F.3d 539, 541-42 (8th Cir. 2003).
