386 U.S. 738(1967), challenging the reasonableness of Baldwin’s sentence. Upon careful review, we conclude that the appeal waiver is valid, enforceable, and applicable to the issue raised in this appeal. See United States v. Scott,
627 F.3d 702, 704 (8th Cir. 2010) (standard of review); United States v. Andis,
333 F.3d 886, 889-92 (8th Cir. 2003) (en banc). We have also independently reviewed the record under Penson v. Ohio,
488 U.S. 75(1988), and have found no non-frivolous issues for appeal falling outside the scope of the waiver. Accordingly, we dismiss this appeal based on the appeal waiver, and we grant counsel’s motion to withdraw. ______________________________ -2-
