*1 Before LOKEN, MURPHY, and BENTON, Circuit Judges.
____________
PER CURIAM.
*2 Pursuant to a written plea agreement that included an appeal waiver, Vinh Xuan Ngo pleaded guilty to charges of aiding and abetting bank fraud and aggravated identity theft. The district court sentenced him below the calculated Guidelines [1]
range to 114 months in prison, and Ngo appeals. His counsel has moved to withdraw, and in a brief submitted under Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738 (1967), counsel argues that the sentence is unreasonable, and asks that this court consider whether the appeal waiver should be enforced in this case.
Having carefully considered the record, we conclude that the appeal waiver is enforceable and should be enforced. See United States v. Scott, 627 F.3d 702, 704 (8th Cir. 2010) (de novo review). At the plea hearing, the district court carefully and thoroughly questioned Ngo to ensure that he was entering into the plea agreement and the appeal waiver knowingly and voluntarily, see Nguyen v. United States, 114 F.3d 699, 703 (8th Cir. 1997); this appeal falls within the scope of the broadly worded appeal waiver; and no miscarriage of justice would result from enforcing the waiver, see United States v. Andis, 333 F.3d 886, 890-92 (8th Cir. 2003) (en banc). Further, we have reviewed the record independently under Penson v. Ohio, 488 U.S. 75 (1988), and find no non-frivolous issues for appeal outside the scope of the waiver. Accordingly, we grant counsel’s motion to withdraw, and we dismiss this appeal.
