     Paul M. Gagnon, United States Attorney and Peter E. Papps,

First Assistant U.S. Attorney on Motion for Summary Disposition for

appellee.











December 10, 1998







                                

                                





            Per Curiam.  Upon careful review of the district

    court's decision, in light of the parties' briefs, and the

    record on appeal, we find no abuse of discretion in the

    district court's denial of appellant's motion to set aside its

    earlier final judgment under Fed. R. Civ. P. 60(b)(6).    

              Affirmed.
