1Opinion of the Court

RONEY, Senior Circuit Judge:

Convicted of firearms violations, defendant Miguel Suarez appeals (1) the Government’s refusal to provide him with the location of a confidential informant, alleging that the Government’s negligent concealment of the informant’s whereabouts violated his Sixth Amendment right to compulsory process of witnesses, and (2) the district court’s imposition of sentence based on an upward departure from the prescribed guideline range, alleging that the district court failed to sufficiently articulate its reasons for the departure. We affirm.
