Opinion:
ORDER
Per Curiam:
Thomas Presley was convicted of first degree murder and the class A felony of abuse of a child resulting in death. He appeals, arguing that the trial court erred in overruling his objection to the submission of Instruction 6 to the jury (relating to the first degree murder charge), as well as in overruling his motion to dismiss Count II (relating to the child abuse charge). We affirm. Rule 30.25(b).
