OPINION

ALARID, Judge.

Defendant appeals from his convictions for trafficking cocaine and conspiracy to traffic cocaine. He raises three issues on appeal: (1) whether he made a knowing and voluntary waiver of counsel; (2) whether he was denied effective assistance of counsel because his attorney had a conflict of interest: and (3) whether there was sufficient evidence to support his convictions. Other issues listed in the docketing statement but not briefed are abandoned. State v. Fish, 102 N.M. 775, 701 P.2d 374 (Ct.App.1985). We reverse and remand for a new trial.
