We decline to consider a ground of relief that the defendant did not present in the District Court. Reville v. Reville, 289 A.2d 695, 697-98 (Me.1972). In addition, we conclude that the limitation imposed upon cross-examination of a witness was within the scope of the District Court’s discretion. M.R.Evid. 611(a). The entry is: Judgment affirmed. All concurring.
