PER CURIAM:*

         Peter David Wagner filed a notice of appeal from his

sentence in a guilty-plea conviction for mail fraud.                  We have

reviewed Wagner’s brief and the record and conclude that Wagner’s

waiver of his right to appeal as part of the plea agreement was

United States v. Musquiz, 45 F.3d 927, 931 (5th Cir.), cert.

DISMISSED.   Wagner’s motion to strike counsel’s brief and to file

a pro se brief is DENIED.

     APPEAL DISMISSED.   MOTION DENIED.
