United States Court of Appeals FOR THE EIGHTH CIRCUIT _____________ No. 97-3452MN _____________ United States of America, * * Appellee, * Appeal from the United States * District Court for the District v. * of Minnesota. * Edward Boler, * [UNPUBLISHED] * Appellant. * _____________ Submitted: February 10, 1998 Filed: February 20, 1998 _____________ Before FAGG and MURPHY, Circuit Judges, and SMITH,* District Judge. _____________ PER CURIAM.

Edward Boler appeals his conviction for possession with intent to distribute cocaine. On appeal, Boler claims the district court committed error in refusing to suppress cocaine seized during the follow-up search of Boler's duffle bag. We disagree. Having reviewed the record and the parties' briefs, we conclude the district court correctly ruled that Boler impliedly consented to a second search of his duffle bag. We thus uphold Boler's conviction. See 8th Cir. R. 47B.

* The Honorable Ortrie D. Smith, United States District Judge for the Western District of Missouri, sitting by designation.
