United States v. Chimeo-Reyes

U.S. Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit
United States v. Chimeo-Reyes, 23 F. App'x 883 (9th Cir. 2002)

United States v. Chimeo-Reyes

Opinion of the Court

MEMORANDUM **

Leoncio Chimeo-Reyes, aka Chino, appeals his conviction by guilty plea and sentence for conspiracy to harbor and transport illegal aliens, in violation of 8 U.S.C. §§ 1324(a)(1)(A)(v)(1) and (a)(1)(B)(I). Chimeo-Reyes’ attorney has filed a brief pursuant to Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738, 87 S.Ct. 1396, 18 L.Ed.2d 493 (1967), and a motion to withdraw on the ground that the appeal is without merit and frivolous.

Chimeo-Reyes’ plea agreement contains an express waiver of the right to appeal the judgment and sentence. Because our *884independent review of the record indicates that the plea agreement, including the waiver of the right to appeal, was entered knowingly and voluntarily, United States v. Aguilar-Muniz, 156 F.3d 974, 976 (9th Cir. 1998), we enforce the waiver, GRANT counsel’s motion to withdraw, and DISMISS the appeal,

This disposition is not appropriate for publication and may not be cited to or by the courts of this circuit except as may be provided by Ninth Circuit Rule 36-3.
