Opinion
No. 97-2343.
February 25, 1999.
APPEAL FROM THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT FOR THE DISTRICT OF MASSACHUSETTS; [Hon. Patti B. Saris, U.S. District Judge].
Before Selya, Circuit Judge, Bownes, Senior Circuit Judge, and Stahl, Circuit Judge.
Darla J. Mondou on brief for appellant.
Donald K. Stern, United States Attorney, and Dina Michael Chaitowitz, Chief of Appeals, on Motion for Summary Disposition for appellee.
Upon careful review of the record, appellant's brief, and the government's motion for summary disposition, we conclude that this appeal clearly presents no substantial question. Appellant forfeited his argument in the district court, and so we apply only plain error review. See United States v. Olano, 507 U.S. 725, 732, 736 (1993). Even had the district court erred in assessing a sixth criminal history point, any such error certainly was not "plain," and it had no discernible effect on appellant's rights. Therefore, we will not overturn the sentence imposed by the district court.
The government's motion is granted.
Affirmed. See 1st Cir. Loc. R. 27.1.
