Per Curiam. After carefully reviewing the briefs and
record on appeal, we affirm substantially for the reasons given
by the district court. Despite notice and without excuse, the
appellant failed to carry out the court’s orders concerning
discovery and sanctions. He also burdened the court and the
appellee with needless delays. Robson v. Hallenbeck, 81 F.3d
1 (1st Cir. 1996); United States v. One 1987 BMW, 985 F.2d 655,
657 (1st Cir. 1993). The court did not abuse its discretion
in dismissing the action. Velazquez-Rivera v. Sea-Land
Service, Inc., 920 F.2d 1072 (1st Cir. 1990).
Affirmed. Loc. R. 27(c).
