Demarce v. State and State v. Demarce

Nos. 20000303 and 20000304



Per Curiam.

[¶1]	Mark Demarce appeals from a Northeast Judicial District Court order denying his application for post-conviction relief and his N.D.R.Crim.P. 35 motion for reduction of sentence.  Concluding the judgment of the district court is supported by findings that are not clearly erroneous, the district court did not abuse its discretion in denying Demarce’s motion for default judgment, and the district court’s disposition is supported by the record, we summarily affirm under N.D.R.App.P. 35.1(a)(2), (4), and (6).
