The following excerpt is from U.S. v. Lopez-Vasquez, 1 F.3d 751 (9th Cir. 1993):
We conclude mass silent waiver impermissibly "presume[s] acquiescence" in the loss of the right to appeal and fails to overcome the "presumption against waiver." See Barker, 407 U.S. at 525, 92 S.Ct. at 2189. 7 We reach the same conclusion in United States v. Gonzalez-Mendoza, 985 F.2d 1014-1017 (9th Cir.1993).
