STATE of Iowa, Appellee, v. Kevin Ray TAGUE, Appellant.

Supreme Court of Iowa.

September 23, 1981.


Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

John C. Platt, Cedar Rapids, for appellant.

Thomas J. Miller, Atty. Gen., and Roxann M. Ryan, Asst. Atty. Gen., for appellee.

Considered by REYNOLDSON, C. J., and LeGRAND, HARRIS, McCORMICK, and ALLBEE, JJ.


HARRIS, Justice.

We affirm defendant's conviction of sexual abuse in the third degree. § 709.4(3), The Code 1979. In his assignments of error defendant contends the State should have been required to show intent as an element of the offense, that his good faith mistake about the victim's age was a defense, that he was denied due process and equal protection, and that lascivious acts with a child should have been submitted as a lesser included offense.
