                               ____________

Before COLLOTON, WOLLMAN, and BENTON, Circuit Judges.
                       ____________

PER CURIAM.
      Christopher Chmela appeals the sentence imposed by the district court1 after
he pleaded guilty to enticement of a minor. Chemla entered his plea according to a
plea agreement that included an appeal waiver. His counsel has moved for leave to
withdraw, and has filed a brief under Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738 (1967),
challenging the sentence.

       We will enforce the appeal waiver in this case because Chmela entered into the
plea agreement and the appeal waiver knowingly and voluntarily, his challenge to the
sentence falls within the scope of the appeal waiver, and no miscarriage of justice
would result from enforcing the waiver. See United States v. Scott, 627 F.3d 702, 704
(8th Cir. 2010); United States v. Andis, 333 F.3d 886, 889-92 (8th Cir. 2003) (en
banc). Further, we have independently reviewed the record under Penson v. Ohio,
488 U.S. 75 (1988), and have found no non-frivolous issues for appeal outside the
scope of the appeal waiver. Accordingly, we dismiss this appeal based on the appeal
waiver, and we grant counsel’s motion to withdraw.
                       ______________________________

      The Honorable Roseann A. Ketchmark, United States District Judge for the
