                  Appeal from the United States District Court
                      for the Middle District of Georgia
                        ________________________

                                (August 6, 2020)

Before JORDAN, NEWSOM, and GRANT, Circuit Judges.

PER CURIAM:

      The Government’s motion to dismiss this appeal pursuant to the appeal

waiver in Appellant’s plea agreement is GRANTED. See United States v. Bushert,

997 F.2d 1343, 1350–51 (11th Cir. 1993) (sentence appeal waiver will be enforced
              Case: 19-13823    Date Filed: 08/06/2020   Page: 2 of 2



if it was made knowingly and voluntarily). A “vigorous dispute about an issue

during the sentencing proceedings does not preserve that issue for appeal when the

terms of the appeal waiver do not except it from the waiver.” United States v.

Bascomb, 451 F.3d 1292, 1296 (11th Cir. 2006).
