                              State v. Heinrich
                                No. 20220339

Per Curiam.

[¶1] Jeremy Wayne Heinrich appeals from a criminal judgment entered after
a jury convicted him of one count of continuous sexual abuse of a child and two
counts of promoting obscenity to minors. He argues the convictions are not
supported by sufficient evidence. “In reviewing challenges to the sufficiency of
the evidence on appeal, the defendant bears the burden of showing the
evidence reveals no reasonable inference of guilt when viewed in the light most
favorable to the verdict.” State v. Rai, 2019 ND 71, ¶ 13, 924 N.W.2d 410
(cleaned up). After reviewing the record, we conclude sufficient evidence exists
for a jury to draw a reasonable inference Heinrich committed the charged
offenses. We summarily affirm under N.D.R.App.P. 35.1(a)(3).
