report on behalf of a larger collaboration:

We have observed the error circle of GRB 020321 (GCN #1285) with
the Magellan/Baade 6.5-m telescope + LDSS2 at 2002 Mar 22.28 and
23.41 UT.  The limiting magnitude of our observations is
approximately R ~ 24 mag.  We have performed PSF-matched image
subtraction to search for variable objects within the field.  We do
not find any afterglow candidate upon visual inspection of the
subtracted image.
