MEMORANDUM OPINION

VIGIL, Judge.

{1}       Defendant Raymond Deal challenges the sufficiency of the evidence to support a judgment and sentence for driving while under the influence of intoxicating liquor, entered following a jury trial. [DS 3] Defendant’s docketing statement asserted that the trial evidence included testimony from the arresting officer, a BAC card showing .07, and a dash-cam video of Defendant performing field sobriety tests before his arrest. [DS 2-3] This Court issued a calendar notice proposing to affirm on the basis that, viewed in the light most favorable to the verdict, a rational trier of fact could have determined that Defendant was driving while impaired. [CN 3] Defendant has filed a memorandum in opposition to that proposed disposition.

{2}       In that memorandum, Defendant continues his general assertion that the evidence was insufficient to support his conviction. We remain unpersuaded. See State v. Mondragon, 1988-NMCA-027, ¶ 10, 107 N.M. 421, 759 P.2d 1003 (explaining that the repetition of earlier arguments does not meet a party’s burden to come forward and specifically point out errors of law or fact in a notice of proposed summary disposition, superseded by statute on other grounds as stated in State v. Harris, 2013-NMCA-031, ¶ 3, 297 P.3d 374)). Accordingly, for the reasons stated in this Court’s notice of proposed disposition, we affirm Defendant’s conviction.

{3}       IT IS SO ORDERED.
