*Of the Eastern District of Virginia, sitting by designation.
Per Curiam. This appeal was argued on September 14,
2001, in conjunction with several other appeals raising the same
principal question: does an undifferentiated conviction under
Maine's general-purpose assault statute, Me. Rev. Stat. Ann.
tit. 17-A, § 207, constitute a conviction for a misdemeanor
crime of domestic violence within the purview of 18 U.S.C. §
922(g)(9)? We answered that question affirmatively in United
States v. Nason, ___ F.3d ___ (1st Cir. 2001) [No. 01-1440].
Nason is fully dispositive here. Accordingly, the defendant's
conviction is affirmed.
Affirmed.
