LARSON, Justice.

Albert Barnes was ordered confined pursuant to Iowa Code section 229A.7(3) (2001), based on a jury's finding that he met the statutory definition of a sexually violent predator under Iowa Code section 229A.2(9). Barnes appealed, arguing that he was denied due process by the district court's failure to fully instruct the jury. We reverse and remand.
