STATE of Missouri, Plaintiff/Respondent, v. Samuel C. TAYLOR, Defendant/Appellant.
    No. ED 91164.
    Missouri Court of Appeals, Eastern District, Division Three.
    Feb. 17, 2009.
    Christopher A. Koster, Shaun J. MacK-elprang, Jefferson City, MO, for Plaintiff/Respondent.
    Matthew Michael Ward, Columbia, MO, for Defendant/Appellant.
    Before ROBERT G. DOWD, JR., P.J., CLIFFORD H. AHRENS, J. and SHERRI B. SULLIVAN, J.
   ORDER

PER CURIAM.

Samuel C. Taylor (Appellant) appeals from the trial court’s judgment entered upon a jury verdict convicting him of one count of forcible rape, Section 566.030 RSMo 2000, and sentencing him to twenty-five years’ imprisonment. We have reviewed the briefs of the parties and the record on appeal and conclude that there was sufficient evidence that a reasonable juror could have found Appellant guilty beyond a reasonable doubt. 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).
