Jonathan R. Byers, Special Assistant State's Attorney, Office of Attorney General, Bismarck, N.D., for petitioner and appellee. Kent M. Morrow, Bismarck, N.D., for respondent and appellant.
PER CURIAM.

[¶ 1] Voisine appeals from a trial court order denying his request for discharge from commitment as a sexually dangerous individual. Voisine argues the trial court erred in finding he has a congenital or acquired condition manifested by a mental, physical, or sexual disorder; is likely to engage in further acts of sexually predatory conduct; and has serious difficulty controlling his behavior. We conclude the trial court's order is supported by clear and convincing evidence, and we summarily affirm under N.D.R.App.P. 35.1(a)(2).

[¶ 2] GERALD W. VANDEWALLE, C.J., MARY MUEHLEN MARING, DALE V. SANDSTROM, DANIEL J. CROTHERS and cAROL RONNING KAPSNER, JJ., concur.
