MEMORANDUM OPINION

VANZI, Judge.

Defendant Corey Mathis appeals his conviction for trafficking controlled substances. He asserts that the district court should have enforced an agreement he made with a State Police agent pursuant to which he would receive reduced charges and a sentence of probation if he worked for the agent as a confidential informant. [DS 5] This Court filed a notice of proposed summary disposition, proposing to affirm the district court’s denial of Defendant’s motion to enforce the agreement. Defendant filed a memorandum in opposition to proposed summary disposition, which we have given due consideration. Unpersuaded, we affirm the district court.

Defendant’s memorandum in opposition suggests that we assign this appeal to the general calendar so as to better develop the facts using the hearing transcript. We decline to do so, as the facts set forth in the docketing statement and the district court’s letter decision provide sufficient basis to affirm.

For the reasons stated in our notice of proposed summary disposition, we affirm the district court.

IT IS SO ORDERED.

LINDA M. VANZI, Judge
