In Re the Care & Treatment of Bernat
Missouri Court of Appeals · Decided September 7, 2010 · Norton, Crane
320 S.W.3d 209; 2010 Mo. App. LEXIS 1180; 2010 WL 3478281 (South Western Reporter, Third Series)

In Re the Care & Treatment of Bernat

Opinion

ORDER

PER CURIAM.

Albert Bernat appeals the judgment of the probate court entered upon a jury verdict finding him to be a sexually violent predator and, as such, committing him to the custody of the director of the department of mental health. We find that the trial court did not abuse its discretion in refusing Bernat’s proposed jury instructions.

An extended opinion would have no precedential value. We have, however, provided the parties a memorandum setting forth the reasons for our decision. The judgment of the trial court is affirmed under Rule 84.16(b).
