16 MEMORANDUM OPINION GARCIA, Judge.

1 Defendant appeals his conviction for DWI. We proposed to affirm in two calendar notices. In response to our second notice, Defendant declares that a second memorandum in opposition will not be filed, but relies on facts and argument included in his memorandum in opposition to our first notice. We note that, “[a] party opposing summary disposition is required to come forward and specifically point out errors in fact and/or law.” State v. Ibarra, 116 N.M. 486, 489, 864 P.2d 302, 305 (Ct. 7 App. 1993). In addition, even considering the arguments made in Defendant’s previous memorandum in opposition, we are not persuaded that affirmance is not the correct disposition in this case. Therefore, for the reasons discussed in our calendar notices, we affirm the judgment and sentence entered by the district court.

11 IT IS SO ORDERED.
