Supreme Court of Montana.

Decided June 17, 2008.

Justice JAMES C. NELSON delivered the Opinion of the Court.

¶ 1 Brian James Azure was convicted following a jury trial in the District Court for the Fourth Judicial District, Missoula County, of failure to register as a violent offender. On appeal, he claims that the jury was bound to acquit him in light of the jury instructions given by the District Court and the evidence adduced at trial. We disagree and, thus, affirm the District Court's judgment.
