State v. Palacio

Nos. 20170180 and 20170181



Per Curiam.

[¶1]	Juan Manuel Palacio III appeals from a criminal judgment entered after a jury found him guilty of possession of drug paraphernalia and criminal conspiracy to deliver a controlled substance.  Palacio argues the state presented insufficient evidence to uphold the jury’s verdict.  We summarily affirm under N.D.R.App.P. 35.1(a)(7).  
State v. Gray
, 2017 ND 108, ¶¶ 15–16, 893 N.W.2d 484 (affirming judgment where appellant failed to provide a trial transcript on appeal, making it “impossible for this Court to conduct a meaningful and intelligent review” whether the defendant preserved for appeal the issue of insufficiency of the evidence or whether sufficient evidence supported the verdict).
