ORDER AND JUDGMENT*
_________________________________
Before PHILLIPS, EID, and CARSON, Circuit Judges.
_________________________________
Frank Soto pled guilty to conspiracy to distribute methamphetamine and
possession with intent to distribute methamphetamine. He was sentenced to
140 months in prison, which was at the low end of his sentencing guidelines range.
After Mr. Soto filed this appeal, the government moved to enforce the appellate
waiver in his plea agreement. In response, Mr. Soto states “that he does not object to
the dismissal of this appeal pursuant to United States v. Hahn, 359 F.3d 1315
* This order and judgment is not binding precedent, except under the doctrines
of law of the case, res judicata, and collateral estoppel. It may be cited, however, for
its persuasive value consistent with Fed. R. App. P. 32.1 and 10th Cir. R. 32.1.
