United States Court of Appeals For the Eighth Circuit ___________________________ No. 18-3141 ___________________________ United States of America lllllllllllllllllllllPlaintiff - Appellee v. Carson Arcia lllllllllllllllllllllDefendant - Appellant ____________ Appeal from United States District Court for the Eastern District of Arkansas - Little Rock ____________ Submitted: May 21, 2019 Filed: May 24, 2019 [Unpublished] ____________ Before ERICKSON, WOLLMAN, and GRASZ, Circuit Judges. ____________ PER CURIAM.

Carson Arcia directly appeals after he pled guilty to production of child pornography, under a plea agreement containing an appeal waiver, and the district court1 sentenced him to a prison term below the calculated Guidelines range. His counsel has moved to withdraw and has filed a brief under Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738 (1967), challenging the reasonableness of Arcia’s sentence. The government has filed a motion to dismiss the appeal based on the appeal waiver.

Upon careful de novo review, we conclude that the appeal waiver is valid, enforceable, and applicable to this appeal. 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, 889-92 (8th Cir. 2003) (en banc) (appeal waiver will be enforced if appeal falls within scope of waiver, defendant knowingly and voluntarily entered into plea agreement and waiver, and enforcing waiver would not result in miscarriage of justice). We have also independently reviewed the record under Penson v. Ohio, 488 U.S. 75 (1988), and there are no non-frivolous issues for appeal outside the scope of the appeal waiver. Accordingly, we grant the government’s motion, dismiss this appeal based on the appeal waiver, and grant counsel leave to withdraw. ______________________________

The Honorable D.P. Marshall Jr., United States District Judge for the Eastern District of Arkansas.
