      James Earley pleaded guilty to one count of concealment of an event affecting

entitlement to social security benefits. The district court sentenced him to three

years’ probation. Although Mr. Earley’s plea agreement included a waiver of his

right to appeal, he filed this appeal. The government has moved to enforce the

appeal waiver under United States v. Hahn, 
359 F.3d 1315
(10th Cir. 2004) (en banc)

         This order and judgment is not binding precedent, except under the doctrines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.
our independent review of the record, we grant the government’s motion and dismiss

the appeal.
