Appellate Case: 23-8049 Document: 010110991952 Date Filed: 01/30/2024 Page: 1 FILED United States Court of Appeals UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS Tenth Circuit FOR THE TENTH CIRCUIT January 30, 2024 _________________________________ Christopher M. Wolpert Clerk of Court UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, Plaintiff - Appellee, v. Nos. 23-8049 & 23-8050 (D.C. Nos. 2:22-CR-00113-ABJ-1 & LEONARD DALE VAN DAM, 1:22-CR-00128-ABJ-1) (D. Wyo.) Defendant - Appellant. _________________________________ ORDER AND JUDGMENT* _________________________________ Before HOLMES, Chief Judge, MORITZ, and EID, Circuit Judges. _________________________________ Leonard Dale Van Dam and the government reached a plea agreement to settle the two criminal cases underlying these appeals. With limited exceptions, the plea agreement required Mr. Van Dam to waive his right to appeal. So when Mr. Van Dam filed these appeals, the government moved to enforce his appeal waiver. See United States v. Hahn, 359 F.3d 1315, 1328 (10th Cir. 2004) (en banc) (per curiam). Through his attorney, Mr. Van Dam “acknowledges that his appeal waiver is enforceable.” Resp. at 1.

* This order and judgment is not binding precedent, except under the doctrines of law of the case, res judicata, and collateral estoppel. It may be cited, however, for its persuasive value consistent with Fed. R. App. P. 32.1 and 10th Cir. R. 32.1.

Appellate Case: 23-8049 Document: 010110991952 Date Filed: 01/30/2024 Page: 2

Based on the parties’ positions and our independent review, we grant the government’s motion to enforce. We dismiss these appeals. This decision does not diminish any postconviction rights that Mr. Van Dam retained in the plea agreement.
