Per Curiam. Appellant Antonio Medina Puerta appeals the __________
denial by the district court of his motions for a new trial,
pursuant to Fed. R. Crim. P. 33, on the basis of newly
discovered evidence, and for a correction of his sentence,
pursuant to Fed. R. Crim. P. 35. We affirm the decisions of
the district court.
Having carefully reviewed the record in this case, we
find no abuse of the district court's discretion in its
implicit determination that the allegedly newly discovered
evidence presented by appellant was of insufficient weight to
sustain his burden of showing that it would "probably result
in an acquittal upon retrial of the defendant." United ______
States v. Wright, 625 F.2d 1017, 1019 (1st Cir. 1980). ______ ______
Appellant also claims that he is entitled to a
correction of his sentence because the government allegedly
miscalculated what his sentence would have been if the
Federal Sentencing Guidelines applied to this case. This
argument is without merit since there is no evidence that the
district court was influenced by the government's calculation
when the court imposed its sentence in this pre-Guidelines
case. Appellant's other arguments regarding sentencing were
not raised in the district court and hence will not be
considered on appeal. United States v. Carrillo-Figueroa, 34 _____________ _________________
F.3d 33, 39 (1st Cir. 1994).
Affirmed. See 1st Cir. Loc. R. 27.1. ________ ___
