APPEAL FROM THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT FOR THE DISTRICT OF MASSACHUSETTS [Hon. Douglas P. Woodlock, U.S. District Judge] Before Torruella, Chief Judge, Selya and Boudin, Circuit Judges. Charles W. Rankin and Rankin & Sultan on brief for appellant. Donald K. Stern, United States Attorney, and William F. Sinnott, Assistant U.S. Attorney, on brief for appellee. February 20, 1998 Per Curiam. We perceive no error in the district court's adherence to our decision in United States v. Clase- Espinal,
115 F.3d 1054, 1059-60 (1st Cir.), cert. denied,
118 S. Ct. 384(1997), and defendant offers no substantial reason to revisit or distinguish that decision. In all events, we, as a panel, are bound by the panel decision in Clase-Espinal. See, e.g., United States v. Wogan,
938 F.2d 1446(1st Cir. 1991). Affirmed. See 1st Cir. Loc. R. 27.1. -2-
