Per Curiam. Upon careful review of the briefs and __________

record, it appears that this appeal presents no substantial

question.

We perceive no plain error in the district court's

acceptance of defendant's guilty plea. The evidence of the

overheard phone call does not suggest to us that defendant's

right of privacy was violated, that his plea was involuntary,

or that the district court was required sua sponte to inquire __________

into the matter.

We also perceive no plain error in the sentencing

proceedings related to defendant's medical condition. The

district court postponed sentencing pending the necessary

medical evaluations, and both sides acknowledged at the

sentencing hearing that those evaluations were negative. We

find no basis for resentencing here.

Affirmed. See 1st Cir. Loc. R. 27.1. ________ ___
