HECTOR MORALES, APPELLANT, v. STATE OF ARKANSAS, APPELLEE.

Court of Appeals of Arkansas, Division IV.

Opinion Delivered October 2, 2013.


Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Terry Goodwin Jones , for appellant.

Dustin McDaniel , Att'y Gen., by: Brad Newman , Ass't Att'y Gen., for appellee.


RHONDA K. WOOD, Judge.

At a bench trial, the Circuit Court of Craighead County found the appellant Hector Morales guilty of sexual indecency with a child. On appeal, Morales challenges only the sufficiency of the evidence supporting the conviction. Specifically, he claims that because he met his burden of proof as to an affirmative defense established by statute, the case should be reversed. We disagree and affirm the conviction.
