                                State v. Metz
                                No. 20200023

Per Curiam.

[¶1] Russell Metz appeals from a district court’s judgment entered after a
jury convicted him of conspiracy to commit burglary, in violation of N.D.C.C.
§§ 12.1-06-04 and 12.1-22-02(1), a class C felony. Metz challenges the
sufficiency of the evidence to support the verdict. After reviewing the record,
we conclude sufficient evidence supports the verdict. We summarily affirm the
criminal judgment under N.D.R.App.P. 35.1(a)(3).
