The following excerpt is from U.S. v. Lagarda-Lagarda, 21 F.3d 1117 (9th Cir. 1994):
E.R. at 52 (emphasis added). If this waiver is valid, then defendant cannot challenge his sentence because it was made in accordance with the plea agreement. See United States v. Navarro-Botello, 912 F.2d 318, 319 (9th Cir.1990) ("[I]f the waiver [of a right to appeal pursuant to plea agreement] is made voluntarily and knowingly, it is enforceable and does not violate due process or public policy."), cert. denied, 112 S.Ct. 1488 (1992).
