pleaded guilty to a child pornography offense, pursuant to a written plea agreement

containing an appeal waiver. His counsel has moved for leave to withdraw and has
filed a brief under Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738 (1967), arguing that the
sentence is substantively unreasonable and challenging a condition of supervised
release. Sanchez has not filed a pro se brief.
Upon careful review, we conclude the appeal waiver is enforceable, and
applicable to the issues raised in this appeal. See United States v. Scott, 627 F.3d
702, 704 (8th Cir. 2010) (standard of review); 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 appeal 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 have found no non-frivolous issues for appeal falling outside the scope
of the appeal waiver. Accordingly, we grant counsel’s motion to withdraw and
dismiss the appeal.
