MEMORANDUM * PAUL ANDREW SILMAN, Defendant - Appellant. Appeal from the United States District Court for the Southern District of California William Q. Hayes, District Judge, Presiding Submitted March 5, 2013 ** Pasadena, California Before: HAWKINS, THOMAS, and HURWITZ, Circuit Judges. Defendant Paul Andrew Silman appeals his sentence of 65 months incarceration followed by three years of supervised release. We have jurisdiction * This disposition is not appropriate for publication and is not precedent except as provided by 9th Cir. R. 36-3. ** The panel unanimously concludes this case is suitable for decision without oral argument. See Fed. R. App. P. 34(a)(2). under 28 U.S.C. § 1291. Because the parties are familiar with the facts, we need not recount them here. In his plea agreement, Defendant validly waived his right to appeal his conviction and sentence. See United States v. Nguyen, 235 F.3d 1179, 1182–83 (9th Cir. 2000), abrogated on other grounds by United States v. Rahman, 642 F.3d 1257, 1259 (9th Cir. 2011). His arguments that the Government breached the plea agreement are meritless. Accordingly, we dismiss this appeal. United States v. Michlin, 34 F.3d 896, 898 (9th Cir. 1994). DISMISSED.
