UNITED STATES,
Appellee,
v.
ROBERT MEDEIROS,
Defendant, Appellant.
APPEAL FROM THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
FOR THE DISTRICT OF RHODE ISLAND
[Hon. Ronald R. Lagueux, U.S. District Judge]
Before
Torruella, Chief Judge,
Selya and Boudin, Circuit Judges.
Thomas A. Grasso on brief for appellant.
Sheldon Whitehouse, United States Attorney, Margaret E. Curran
and Charles A. Tamuleviz, Assistant United States Attorneys, on brief
for appellee.
February 10, 1998
Per Curiam. Upon careful review of the record, briefs,
and the government's motion for summary disposition, it
plainly appears that the district court's discretionary
decision to deny a downward departure is not subject to
appellate review. See United States v. Saldana, 109 F.3d
100, 103 (1st Cir. 1997).
Affirmed. See 1st Cir. Loc. R. 27.1.
