OPINION

Appellant Rinaldo Diehl and eleven co-defendants were charged in a one-count indictment with conspiracy to possess and distribute a controlled substance in violation of 21 U.S.C. § 846. On October 26, 2001, Diehl pled guilty to possessing more than five grams of cocaine base in violation of 21 U.S.C. §§ 841(a)(1) and (b)(1)(B). Diehl’s violation carried a possible term of imprisonment between 188 and 235 months under the relevant provisions of the United States Sentencing Guidelines. Prior to sentencing, Diehl moved for a downward *840 departure pursuant to U.S.S.G. § 4A1.S, arguing that his criminal history significantly overrepresents the seriousness of his conduct. 1 The District Court declined to exercise its discretion to depart from the guidelines, and on May 29, 2002, Diehl was sentenced to a prison term of 188 months. The District Court further sentenced Diehl to a five-year period of supervised release to commence after his term of imprisonment. This timely appeal followed. The District Court had jurisdiction under 18 U.S.C. § 3231, and we exercise jurisdiction under 28 U.S.C. § 1291.

Diehl’s counsel has filed a brief pursuant to Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738, 87 S.Ct. 1396, 18 L.Ed.2d 493 (1967) stating that no non-frivolous issues exist for appeal. The United States agrees with this representation. In Anders, the Supreme Court established that where a conscientious examination of the record convinces counsel representing an indigent criminal defendant that no meritorious issues exist for appeal, counsel may seek to withdraw from further representation. Id. at 744; United States v. Youla, 241 F.3d 296, 299 (3d Cir. 2001). 2 Our evaluation of an Anders brief considers whether counsel has adequately fulfilled the requirements of L.App. R. 109.2(a), and whether our independent review of the record reveals any non-frivolous issues. Youla, 241 F.3d at 300; United States v. Marvin, 211 F.3d 778, 780-81 (3d Cir. 2000). A satisfactory Anders brief requires evidence that counsel has throughly and conscientiously examined the record for appealable issues, and an explanation of why the issues presented are frivolous. Youla, 241 F.3d at 300; Marvin, 211 F.3d at 780. It is not necessary for counsel to “raise and reject every possible claim,” but the brief must demonstrate a conscientious review of the case. Youla, 241 F.3d at 300.

After considering the submission of Diehl’s counsel, 3 and following our own independent review of the present record, we agree that there are no non-frivolous issues for appeal. We note that the District Court engaged in a thorough colloquy with Diehl prior to accepting his plea as required by Federal Rule of Criminal Procedure 11. None of Diehl’s pre-trial motions concerned jurisdictional matters, and hence his right to appeal these rulings was waived by his plea agreement. United States v. Panarella, 277 F.3d 678, 689 (3d *841 Cir. 2002); United States v. Bentz, 21 F.3d 37, 38 (3d Cir. 1994). In addition, as the District Court acknowledged its discretion to depart from the Guidelines, but nonetheless determined that departure was not warranted, we lack jurisdiction to consider an appeal of Diehl’s sentencing motion. United States v. Marin-Castaneda, 134 F.3d 551, 554 (3d Cir. 1998). Finally, the United States was not required to inform Diehl in writing of the prior convictions it intended to rely upon in seeking career offender enhancement under U.S.S.G. § 4B1.1, because the government did not seek a sentence beyond the maximum provided by the statute. United States v. Day, 969 F.2d 39, 48 (3d Cir. 1992).

For the foregoing reasons, we find that the issues raised in this appeal lack legal merit, and find no other non-frivolous issues for review. L.App. R. 109.2(b). Accordingly, we will grant counsel’s motion to withdraw and affirm the judgment of the District Court entered on May 31, 2002.
