United States First Circuit

Conviction for distribution of heroin and cocaine base and possession of the same with intent to distribute is affirmed over defendant's arguments that: 1) the district court erred in quashing an eve-of-trial subpoena to a witness and limiting a similar subpoena to an FBI agent; and 2) the government read an early discovery order too narrowly and the district judge should have sanctioned the government by suppressing evidence.
