Opinion:
ORDER
PER CURIAM.
Albert Bernat appeals the judgment of the probate court entered upon a jury verdict finding him to be a sexually violent predator and, as such, committing him to the custody of the director of the department of mental health. We find that the trial court did not abuse its discretion in refusing Bernat's proposed jury instructions.
An extended opinion would have no precedential value. We have, however, provided the parties a memorandum setting forth the reasons for our decision. The judgment of the trial court is affirmed under Rule 84.16(b).
