(April 30, 2018)
Before WILLIAM PRYOR, JILL PRYOR and FAY, Circuit Judges.
BY THE COURT:
The Government’s motion to dismiss this appeal pursuant to the appeal
waiver in Medina’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: 17-14341 Date Filed: 04/30/2018 Page: 2 of 2
if it was made knowingly and voluntarily); United States v. Al-Arian, 514 F.3d
1184, 1192-93 (11th Cir. 2008) (noting that this Court is “especially dubious” of
implicit promises where a plea agreement contains an integration clause and the
defendant denied relying on other promises in pleading guilty).
