Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

James T. Maloney (Maloney & David, on brief), for appellant.

Joshua M. Didlake , Assistant Attorney General ( Kenneth T. Cuccinelli II , Attorney General, on brief), for appellee.

Present: HASSELL, C.J., KOONTZ, KINSER, GOODWYN, and MILLETTE, JJ., and CARRICO and RUSSELL, S.JJ.

Opinion by Justice CYNTHIA D. KINSER.

In this appeal, a defendant challenges the sufficiency of the evidence to support her conviction for involuntary manslaughter, specifically contesting the findings that she was criminally negligent and that her acts were a proximate cause of a toddler's death. Because there is sufficient evidence to support both findings, we will affirm the judgment of conviction.
