Opinion

No. 66612.

February 27, 1996.

APPEAL FROM MISSOURI CIRCUIT COURT OF PIKE COUNTY; ROCKNE CALHOUN, JUDGE.

Robert E. Steele, Jr., Public Defender, St. Louis, for appellant.

Jeremiah W. (Jay) Nixon, Attorney General, Fernando Bermudez, Assistant Attorney General, Jefferson City, for respondent.

Before REINHARD, P.J., and KAROHL and GRIMM, JJ.


A jury convicted defendant of involuntary manslaughter, § 565.024, RSMo 1994, and failure to register a motor vehicle, § 301.020.6, RSMo 1994. Defendant also pled guilty to driving while suspended. The trial court sentenced him to seven years, four months, and one year, respectively. Defendant appeals; we affirm.

Defendant's sole point challenges the sufficiency of the evidence of involuntary manslaughter. We have carefully examined the transcript and find the evidence to be sufficient.

No jurisprudential purpose would be served by a written opinion. However, the parties have been furnished with a memorandum opinion for their information only, setting forth the facts and reasons for this order.

The judgment is affirmed pursuant to Rule 30.25 (b).
