NOT FOR PUBLICATION FILED UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS OCT 10 2025 MOLLY C. DWYER, CLERK U.S. COURT OF APPEALS FOR THE NINTH CIRCUIT

UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, No. 25-663 D.C. No. Plaintiff - Appellee, 9:24-cr-00006-DLC-1 v. MEMORANDUM* EDWARD WAYNE BROCK,

Defendant - Appellant.

Appeal from the United States District Court for the District of Montana Dana L. Christensen, District Judge, Presiding

Submitted August 19, 2025**

Before: TASHIMA, HURWITZ, and BADE, Circuit Judges.

Edward Wayne Brock appeals from the district court’s judgment and

challenges his guilty-plea conviction and 84-month sentence for possession with

intent to distribute methamphetamine in violation of 21 U.S.C. § 841(a)(1),

(b)(1)(B)(viii).

* This disposition is not appropriate for publication and is not precedent except as provided by Ninth Circuit Rule 36-3. ** The panel unanimously concludes this case is suitable for decision without oral argument. See Fed. R. App. P. 34(a)(2). Brock’s counsel filed a brief under Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738

(1967), stating that there are no non-frivolous arguments for appeal. Brock has

filed a pro se supplemental brief.

In the plea agreement, Brock waived his right to appeal the conviction and

sentence.

Our independent review of the record, see Penson v. Ohio, 488 U.S. 75, 80

(1988), discloses no non-frivolous issue as to whether the appeal waiver is

enforceable. See United States v. Watson, 582 F.3d 974, 986-88 (9th Cir. 2009).

We therefore dismiss the appeal. See id. at 988.

Counsel’s motion to withdraw is granted.

DISMISSED.
