Heading: Issue 3 Judgment on the Evidence

Text: Defendant claims that the trial court erred in overruling his motion for judgment on the evidence at the close of the State's case. In essence, he argues that proof and reasonable resulting inferences of defendant's possession of the weapon, throwing it into a corner of the tavern, and being unlicensed to carry it, were insufficient because of the failure to prove the element of carrying. In our discussion above, we have discussed the proper meaning of the term carrying. We find the evidence was sufficient. Furthermore, because defendant presented further evidence after the trial court denied his motion for judgment on the evidence, any error on the ruling is not subject to appellate review. Dziepak v. State (1985), Ind., 483 N.E.2d 449; Parker v. State (1976), 265 Ind. 595, 358 N.E.2d 110.
