No sign (yet) of intergalactic globular clusters in the Local Group
  We present Gemini/GMOS imaging of twelve candidate intergalactic globular
clusters (IGCs) in the Local Group, identified in a recent survey of the SDSS
footprint by di Tullio Zinn & Zinn (2015). Our image quality is sufficiently
high, at $\sim 0.4^{\prime\prime} - 0.7^{\prime\prime}$, that we are able to
unambiguously classify all twelve targets as distant galaxies. To reinforce
this conclusion we use GMOS images of globular clusters in the M31 halo, taken
under very similar conditions, to show that any genuine clusters in the
putative IGC sample would be straightforward to distinguish. Based on the
stated sensitivity of the di Tullio Zinn & Zinn (2015) search algorithm, we
conclude that there cannot be a significant number of IGCs with $M_V \le -6$
lying unseen in the SDSS area if their properties mirror those of globular
clusters in the outskirts of M31 -- even a population of $4$ would have only a
$\approx 1\%$ chance of non-detection.
