UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS October 19, 2010
Elisabeth A. Shumaker
FOR THE TENTH CIRCUIT Clerk of Court
UNITED STATES OF AMERICA,
Plaintiff!Appellee,
v. No. 10-3129
(D.C. No. 2:09-CR-20034-KHV-1)
TAURINO CERECERES!MORALES, (D. Kan.)
Defendant!Appellant.
ORDER AND JUDGMENT *
Before HARTZ, GORSUCH, and HOLMES, Circuit Judges.
Taurino Cereceres-Morales pleaded guilty to one count of possession with
intent to distribute 100 kilograms or more of marijuana. The district court
sentenced him to sixty months in prison, which was both the statutory mandatory
minimum and the sentence the parties had agreed to in their plea agreement.
Although the parties’ plea agreement contained an appeal waiver, Mr. Cereceres-
Morales appealed.
*
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 This order and judgment is not binding precedent, except under the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.
The government has moved to enforce the agreement pursuant to United
States v. Hahn,
359 F.3d 1315 (10th Cir. 2004) (en banc) (per curiam). Counsel
for Mr. Cereceres-Morales filed a response, citing Anders v. California,
386 U.S. 738, 744 (1967), and moved to withdraw. We gave Mr. Cereceres-
Morales an opportunity to file a pro se response. See
id. He has done so, and he
“waives [his] right to appeal.” Pro se Resp. at 1.
Accordingly, we DISMISS this appeal. We DENY the government’s
motion to enforce as moot, and we GRANT Mr. Cereceres-Morales’s counsel’s
motion to withdraw.
