CA9: Ninth fixes its jurisdictional faux pas on waivers in pleas

A little while ago, the Ninth, for some strange reason held that it lacked jurisdiction “to even hear an appeal because of the 11(c)(1)(C) plea.”  Some law clerk screwed that up.  Today, the Ninth Amends its opinion and undoes the damage done.  The case was U.S. v. Garcia, No. 05-30356 (4-17-08) (amended).  Tnx Ninth Circuit blog.
