Jason M. Sullivan on brief for appellant.
Michael J. Sullivan, United States Attorney, George W. Vien
and John A. Wortmann, Jr., Assistant U.S. Attorneys, on Motion
for Summary Disposition for appellee.
January 28, 2002
Per Curiam. Upon careful review of the briefs and
record, we perceive no abuse of discretion in the district
court's decision to admit into evidence the audiotape of the
November 7, 1996 drug transaction recorded by the undercover
DEA Agent. See United States v. Patrick,
248 F.3d 11, 20
(1st Cir. 2001); United States v. Nichols,
808 F.2d 660, 664
(8th Cir. 1987). We therefore grant the government's motion
for summary affirmance.
In so doing, we note that appellant does not raise any
discernable challenge to the propriety of his term of
incarceration or supervised release. To the extent he
vaguely alludes to possible additional issues in footnote 7
of his brief, his cursory references are unsupported by any
developed argumentation and are therefore deemed waived. See
United States v. Zannino,
895 F.2d 1, 17 (1st Cir. 1990).
Affirmed. See Loc. R. 27(c).
