2 Opinion of the Court 24-13908
(sentence appeal waiver will be enforced if it was made knowingly
and voluntarily); United States v. Boyd, 975 F.3d 1185, 1192 (11th Cir.
2020) (noting that the “touchstone” for assessing if a sentence ap-
peal waiver was made knowingly and voluntarily is whether it was
clearly conveyed to the defendant that he was giving up his right
to appeal under most circumstances).
