Nonprecedential Memo Op: 326 Or App 550 (2023) 551 KAMINS, J.
Defendant appeals from a judgment of conviction for unlawfully purchasing a firearm, ORS 166.425 (Count 1), and providing false information in connection with a trans- fer of a firearm, ORS 166.416 (Count 2), raising two assign- ments of error. Regarding her first assignment of error, defendant asserts that the trial court erred in denying her motion for judgment of acquittal on Count 1. On appeal, the state concedes that the record lacked evidence that defen- dant knew that state law prohibited her from purchasing a firearm. We accept that concession. In her second assign- ment of error, defendant contends that the trial court erred by denying her motion for judgment of acquittal on Count 2.
We reject that argument because the record contained suf- ficient evidence for a rational trier of fact to conclude that defendant made false statements in an attempt to purchase a firearm in violation of ORS 166.416.
Conviction on Count 1 reversed; remanded for resentencing; otherwise affirmed.
