Before NEWSOM, BRASHER, and ANDERSON, Circuit Judges. PER CURIAM:

The Government’s motions to dismiss these consolidated appeals pursuant to the sentence-appeal waiver in Appellant’s plea agreement are GRANTED. See United States v. Bushert, 997 F.2d 1343, 1350-51 (11th Cir. 1993) (providing that a sentence-appeal waiver will be enforced if it was made knowingly and voluntarily); United States v. Bascomb, 451 F.3d 1292, 1297 (11th Cir. 2006) (stating that a sentence-appeal waiver “cannot be vitiated or altered by comments the court makes during sentencing”); United States v. Grinard-Henry, 399 F.3d 1294, 1296 (11th Cir. 2005) (concluding that the waiver of the right to appeal includes waiver of the right to appeal difficult or debatable legal issues or even blatant error).
