MEMORANDUM **

Rogelio Carrillo-Acosta appeals his 120-month sentence imposed following his guilty-plea conviction for conspiracy to possess with intent to distribute methamphetamine, in violation of 21 U.S.C. §§ 846 and 841(a)(1).

Where there is a valid appeal waiver, this court lacks appellate jurisdiction. See United States v. Vences, 169 F.3d 611, 613 (9th Cir.1999).

Carrillo-Acosta contends that the district court erred by failing to grant him safety valve relief pursuant to U.S.S.G. § 5C1.2. As part of his plea agreement, however, Carrillo-Acosta waived his right to appeal his sentence. Because Carrillo-Acosta has failed to show that the waiver is invalid, we lack jurisdiction to consider his appeal. See id.

We decline to consider Carrillo-Acosta’s claim of ineffective assistance of counsel. See United States v. Laughlin, 933 F.2d 786, 788 (9th Cir.1991) (stating that as a general rule, we will not review challenges to the effectiveness of counsel on direct appeal).

DISMISSED.
