MEMORANDUM OPINION

HANISEE, Chief Judge.

{1}       Defendant appeals his conviction for possession of methamphetamine. In this Court’s notice of proposed disposition, we proposed to summarily affirm. Defendant filed a memorandum in opposition, which we have duly considered. We remain unpersuaded, and we therefore affirm.

{2}       In his memorandum in opposition, Defendant continues to argue that the district court erred in allowing the jury to consider certain evidence before the State established a sufficient foundation for its admission and that he was denied a fair trial as a result. [MIO 1-2] Defendant, however, has not asserted any new facts, law, or argument that persuade us that our notice of proposed disposition was incorrect. See Hennessy v. Duryea, 1998-NMCA-036, ¶ 24, 124 N.M. 754, 955 P.2d 683 (“Our courts have repeatedly held that, in summary calendar cases, the burden is on the party opposing the proposed disposition to clearly point out errors in fact or law.”); State v. Mondragon, 1988-NMCA-027, ¶ 10, 107 N.M. 421, 759 P.2d 1003 (stating that a party responding to a summary calendar notice must come forward and specifically point out errors of law and fact, and the repetition of earlier arguments does not fulfill this requirement), superseded by statute on other grounds as stated in State v. Harris, 2013-NMCA-031, ¶ 3, 297 P.3d 374.

{3}       Accordingly, for the reasons stated in our notice of proposed disposition and herein, we affirm Defendant’s conviction.

{4}       IT IS SO ORDERED.

J. MILES HANISEE, Chief Judge
