Sean Carey Lynn v. State

Opinion

IN THE TENTH COURT OF APPEALS No. 10-08-00144-CR SEAN CAREY LYNN, Appellant v. THE STATE OF TEXAS, Appellee

From the 40th District Court Ellis County, Texas Trial Court No. 32417CR

MEMORANDUM OPINION

Sean Carey Lynn was convicted of Failure to Register as a Sex Offender and sentenced to 12 years in prison. TEX. CODE CRIM. PROC. ANN. art. 62.102 (Vernon 2006).

We affirm.

In his sole issue, Lynn contends the evidence is insufficient to support the conviction. He relies solely on the "reasonable hypothesis analytical construct" as support for why the evidence was insufficient. That construct for determining the sufficiency of the evidence was abrogated by the Court of Criminal Appeals in 1991.

Geesa v. State, 820 S.W.2d 154, 159, 161 (Tex. Crim. App. 1991). Because Lynn argues no other reason in support of his issue that the evidence is insufficient, his issue is overruled.

Accordingly, the trial court’s judgment is affirmed.
