How courts have described this case

Verbatim parenthetical descriptions written by other courts when citing this decision. Ranked by citation-network relevance.

  • enforcing appellate waiver against a due process claim that constituted nothing more than “a poorly disguised attack on the merits of [the defendant’s] sentence”
  • rejecting defendant’s claim that the district court violated due process by basing a factual finding on insufficient evidence as “a poorly disguised attack on the merits of her sentence” and enforcing the plea agreement waiver
  • “[D]espite his effort to dress up his claim as a violation of the Sixth Amendment, [defendant] in reality is challenging the correctness of his sentence [], and is therefore barred by the plain language of the waiver contained in his plea agreement with the government”
