PER CURIAM.

Scott D. Wullschleger seeks to challenge the sentence imposed by the district 1 court after he pleaded guilty to mail fraud. Wullschleger agreed in his plea agreement, however, to waive his right to appeal his sentence. See United States v. His Law, 85 F.3d 379, 379 (8th Cir. 1996) (per curiam) (specifically enforcing plea agreement

1 The Honorable Lawrence L. Piersol, United States District Judge for the District of South Dakota. promise not to appeal sentence). We will not consider Wullschleger's argument that he should not be bound by this promise because the government breached the plea agreement, as he failed to raise the alleged breach at sentencing. Cf. United States v. Cohen, 60 F.3d 460, 462 (8th Cir. 1995).

We therefore specifically enforce Wullschleger's promise against him by dismissing his appeal.
