UNITED STATES OF AMERICA,
Plaintiff-Appellee,
v.
No. 08-6000
(D.C. No. 07-CR-00171-M-1)
(W.D. Okla.)
JESSE LeCLAIR, JR.,
Defendant-Appellant.
ORDER AND JUDGMENT *
Before TACHA, TYMKOVICH, and GORSUCH, Circuit Judges.
This matter is before the court on the governments motion to enforce the
appeal waiver contained in defendant Jesse LeClair, Jr.s plea agreement. The
motion is filed pursuant to United States v. Hahn, 359 F.3d 1315 (10th Cir. 2004)
(en banc). Defendants counsel filed a response to the motion to enforce stating
his belief that there are no meritorious grounds upon which defendant can urge
This panel has determined unanimously that oral argument would not
materially assist the determination of this appeal. See Fed. R. App. P. 34(a)(2);
10th Cir. R. 34.1(G). The case is therefore ordered submitted without oral
argument. This order and judgment is not binding precedent, except under the
doctrines of law of the case, res judicata, and collateral estoppel. It may be cited,
however, for its persuasive value consistent with Fed. R. App. P. 32.1 and
10th Cir. R. 32.1.
denial of the governments motion to enforce the appeal waiver, and he requested
permission to withdraw. See Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738, 744 (1967)
(authorizing counsel to request permission to withdraw where counsel
conscientiously examines a case and determines that an appeal would be wholly
frivolous). This court then gave defendant an opportunity to file a pro se
response to the governments Hahn motion. In response, defendant filed a request
to withdraw his appeal.
Accordingly, the governments motion is GRANTED, the appeal is
DISMISSED, and defense counsels motion to withdraw is DENIED as moot.
