                            ORDER AND JUDGMENT *


Before TACHA, TYMKOVICH, and HOLMES, Circuit Judges.



         This matter is before the court on the government’s motion to enforce the

appeal waiver contained in defendant’s plea agreement. The motion is filed

pursuant to United States v. Hahn,

      This panel has determined unanimously that oral argument would not
materially assist the determination of this appeal. See Fed. R. App. P. 34(a)(2);
10th Cir. R. 34.1(G). The case is therefore ordered submitted without oral
argument. This order and judgment is not binding precedent, except under the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.

(identifying factors used to determine if appeal waiver is

proceeding. Resp. at 2-7.

      Accordingly, the government’s motion is GRANTED, and the appeal is

DISMISSED.
