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 ap- peal difficult or debatable legal issues or even blatant error).
