Opinion:
PER CURIAM.
Defendant Jerry Rein appeals his conviction on two counts of sexual battery on a minor. Our review of the extensive record in this case reveals that the defendant's contentions in relation to the ostensibly improper denial by the trial court of the use of videotaped depositions during cross-examination of the three youthful prosecution witnesses are not borne out by the transcripts. As we also find no merit to the defendant's other arguments, the defendant's conviction is affirmed.
