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.
