MEMORANDUM OPINION

KENNEDY, Judge.

The State appeals from an order of suppression. We proposed to affirm in a calendar notice. We noted that the State bears the burden of establishing reasonable suspicion to make a stop, and we proposed to hold that the district court could determine whether there was sufficient support for the stop in this case. The State informs this Court that it will not be filing a memorandum in opposition to our calendar notice. We therefore affirm based on the discussion in our calendar notice.

IT IS SO ORDERED.

RODERICK T. KENNEDY, Judge
