MEMORANDUM ***

Royland Rice appeals the district court’s refusal to suppress statements, including a confession, that he made to an interrogating FBI agent. Particularly, he argues that he invoked his Miranda v. Arizona, *113 384 U.S. 436 , 86 S.Ct. 1602 , 16 L.Ed.2d 694 (1966), right to counsel and that pursuant to Edwards v. Arizona, 451 U.S. 477 , 101 S.Ct. 1880 , 68 L.Ed.2d 378 (1981), the FBI should have ceased all questioning.

In Davis v. United States, 512 U.S. 452 , 114 S.Ct. 2350 , 129 L.Ed.2d 362 (1994), the Supreme Court held that a suspect must “unambiguously request counsel.” Id. at 459 , 114 S.Ct. 2350 . If the request is ambiguous, the government is free to continue questioning a suspect without clarifying the invocation. Id. at 459-62 , 114 S.Ct. 2350 . Here, the FBI was free to continue questioning Rice, and did not need to clarify his request, because his request for counsel did not materially differ from the statement “[m]aybe I should talk to a lawyer” that was found ambiguous in Davis. Id. at 462 , 114 S.Ct. 2350 .

Rice waived his arguments that he invoked his right to silence and that he never originally waived his Miranda rights by raising these issues for the first time in his reply brief. See United States v. Doe, 170 F.3d 1162 , 1166 n. 3 (9th Cir.1999).

Additionally, Rice complains that the district court should have held an evidentiary hearing before deciding against suppression and that the government violated Brady v. Maryland, 373 U.S. 83 , 83 S.Ct. 1194 , 10 L.Ed.2d 215 (1963), and Fed. R.Crim.P. 16(a)(1)(A) by fading to disclose “the true facts of the improper questioning that occurred after his Miranda invocation.” Because we find Rice’s invocation ambiguous, any error was harmless.

AFFIRMED.
