MEMORANDUM OPINION

PER CURIAM.

William B. Martin appeals his conviction for misdemeanor driving under the influence, AS 28.35.030(a). We affirm Martin's conviction because all of his appellate claims are inadequately briefed.

Martin's descriptions of the facts underlying his claims are so nebulous and incomplete that the basis of his claims cannot readily be discerned. Moreover, in those few places where Martin does provide specific details of the trial court proceedings, he often affirmatively mischaracterizes the record.

Martin's assertions concerning the applicable law are mostly conclusory, and he often omits discussion of relevant Alaska precedents. In those instances where Martin does discuss Alaska precedent, the precedent is often contrary to his claims. In two instances, Martin asks us to overrule precedent, but without adequate explanation of why, under the doctrine of stare decisis, departure from that precedent is justified.

When a litigant fails to adequately brief an appellate claim, that claim is waived.1 We conclude that all of Martin's claims are waived for inadequate briefing, and we therefore AFFIRM the judgment of the district court.
