16                                 MEMORANDUM OPINION

17 ZAMORA, Judge.

18   {1}    Defendant appeals from a judgment and sentence rendered pursuant to a guilty

19 plea. We previously issued a notice of proposed summary disposition in which we
 1 proposed to dismiss. Defendant has filed a memorandum in opposition. After due

 2 consideration, we remain unpersuaded that this matter is properly before us. We

 3 therefore dismiss.

 4   {2}   As we previously observed, a guilty plea generally operates as a waiver of the

 5 right to appeal the resultant conviction(s) and sentence. State v. Chavarria, 2009-

 6 NMSC-020, ¶ 16, 146 N.M. 251, 208 P.3d 896 (“[T]he constitutional right to appeal

 7 is waivable, and a defendant who knowingly, intelligently, and voluntarily pleads

 8 guilty, waives the right to appeal his conviction and sentence.”). In his memorandum

 9 in opposition Defendant acknowledges this principle. [MIO 3] Nevertheless, he

10 maintains that the sentence is “unjust and unwarranted,” [MIO 3] and he suggests that

11 counsel’s failure to file a sentencing memorandum may have contributed to this

12 outcome. [MIO 4] Insofar as these arguments are not jurisdictional, [MIO 3] we

13 remain unpersuaded that they are properly before us. See id. ¶¶ 9-10, 18 (observing

14 that appellate review of a sentence is limited to jurisdictional errors where a defendant

15 does not challenge the validity of a plea agreement, and ultimately dismissing an

16 appeal under analogous circumstances); State v. Herrera, 2001-NMCA-073, ¶ 37, 131

17 N.M. 22, 33 P.3d 22 (expressing a preference to habeas corpus proceedings over




                                               2
1 remand when the record on appeal does not establish a prima facie case of ineffective

2 assistance of counsel).

3   {3}   Accordingly, for the reasons stated above and in the notice of proposed

4 summary disposition, we dismiss.

5   {4}   IT IS SO ORDERED.
