MEMORANDUM OPINION

Appellant, E.J.E., a juvenile, has filed a motion to voluntarily dismiss his appeal pursuant

discussed the appeal with his attorney and he understands the consequences of its dismissal. We

conclude that this is sufficient to show that E.J.E. has knowingly waived his right to appeal.
