                                  ____________

Before LOKEN, MURPHY, and BENTON, Circuit Judges.
                           ____________

PER CURIAM.

     Aaron Byrd directly appeals the within-Sentencing Guidelines sentence
imposed by the district court1 after he pleaded guilty to a drug conspiracy offense,

      1
       The Honorable Gary A. Fenner, United States District Judge for the Western
District of Missouri.
pursuant to a written plea agreement that contained a waiver of the right to appeal his
conviction and sentence except on enumerated grounds. Byrd’s counsel has moved
to withdraw, and in a brief filed under Anders v. California, 

(1967),
counsel challenges the sentence as substantively unreasonable and contests the
application of certain Guidelines enhancements.

      We will enforce the appeal waiver in this case, because our review of the
record demonstrates that Byrd entered into the plea agreement and the appeal waiver
knowingly and voluntarily; the arguments presented fall within the scope of the
appeal waiver; and no miscarriage of justice would result from enforcing the waiver.
See United States v. Andis, 

, 889-92 (8th Cir. 2003) (en banc). Having
independently reviewed the record under Penson v. Ohio, 

(1988), we find
no nonfrivolous issues for appeal falling outside the scope of the appeal waiver.

      Accordingly, we grant counsel’s motion to withdraw, and we dismiss this
appeal.
