Exclude a file from a CODEOWNER file having global owners

I have a file structure like this:

       repo/
       |-- .github/CODEOWNERS 
       |-- .circleci/ 
       |-- app/ 
       |-- RELEASE.md
       |-- README.md

And my CODEOWNER file:

* @people1 @people2
/.circleci/ @people3 @people4
/app/ @people3 @people1

I want to make it to that RELEASE.md is excluded and the global owners review are not mandatory only for that file. Is this possible?

You can mention the file explicitly with no owners, which overrides the * pattern (last most specific match counts):

* @people1 @people2
/.circleci/ @people3 @people4
/app/ @people3 @people1
RELEASE.md
