   agreement. HELD, because defendant entered into a plea 
   agreement that contained a valid waiver of his appellate rights 
   and the sentence imposed was not illegal, the conditions of 
   defendant's supervised release may not be reviewed on appeal, 
   and the appeal must be dismissed. Concurrence by Judge 
   Morris Sheppard Arnold, joined by Chief Judge Loken, 
   Judge Bowman and Judge Riley. Separate Concurrence by 
   Judge Bye. Judge Bright, concurring in part and dissenting in 
   part, joined by Judge McMillian.
