                            April 8, 1998

Before JOLLY, JONES, and DUHÉ, Circuit Judges.

PER CURIAM:*

     Donald I. James has appealed his convictions for possession

of cocaine with intent to distribute and aiding and abetting.

requirements of Fed. R. Crim. P. 11(c)(1) & (c)(3) in accepting

banc).   The appeal is frivolous and is DISMISSED.    Counsel are
