State v. Ewing
Missouri Court of Appeals · Decided June 8, 2010 · Sullivan, Dowd, Cohen
318 S.W.3d 203; 2010 Mo. App. LEXIS 765; 2010 WL 2284211 (South Western Reporter, Third Series)

State v. Ewing

Opinion

ORDER

PER CURIAM.

Byron Ewing appeals from the trial court’s judgment and sentence entered upon a jury verdict finding him guilty of first-degree statutory rape, first-degree child molestation, and sexual misconduct involving a child. We have reviewed the briefs of the parties and the record on appeal and conclude that the trial court did not abuse its discretion in denying a motion for mistrial and in controlling closing argument. See State v. Barton, 240 S.W.3d 693, 703 (Mo.banc 2007), and State v. Hamilton, 847 S.W.2d 198, 199 (Mo.App. E.D. 1993). An extended opinion would have no precedential value. We have, however, provided a memorandum setting forth the reasons for our decision to the parties for their use only. We affirm the judgment pursuant to Missouri Rule of Criminal Procedure 30.25(b).
