United States v. Zwc, Juvenile Female

U.S. Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit
United States v. Zwc, Juvenile Female, 470 F. App'x 679 (9th Cir. 2012)

United States v. Zwc, Juvenile Female

Opinion

MEMORANDUM **

Z.W.C., a juvenile female, appeals from an adjudication of juvenile delinquency, in violation of 18 U.S.C. § 5032, following a true plea to an information charging her with witness tampering, in violation of 18 U.S.C. § 1512(b)(1). We have jurisdiction under 28 U.S.C. § 1291 and we dismiss.

Z.W.C. pleaded true pursuant to a written agreement that included an appeal waiver, but she contends that the waiver is not enforceable because her sentence violates the Eighth Amendment prohibition against cruel and unusual punishment. This contention lacks merit. See United States v. Meiners, 485 F.3d 1211, 1212-13 (9th Cir. 2007) (per curiam). We therefore enforce the valid appeal waiver. See United States v. Bibler, 495 F.3d 621, 623-24 (9th Cir. 2007).

DISMISSED.
