Heading: Disclosure of the DHS Report

Text: Next, Dougan states in passing that his conviction should be reversed because the State failed to disclose the existence of the DHS report, and it did not include a copy of the report in its investigative file. When an appellant does not cite authority or make a convincing argument, and when it is not apparent without further research that the point is well taken, we will affirm. Qualls v. Ferritor, 329 Ark. 235, 947 S.W.2d 10 (1997); Williams v. State, 329 Ark. 8, 946 S.W.2d 678 (1997). On appeal, Dougan has failed to cite a single authority or make a convincing argument in support of his allegation. In fact, Dougan only mentioned the alleged nondisclosure in a subheading of his brief. Accordingly, we are unable to address the merits of his contention.
