Brian Wesly Ruff ("Ruff") appeals his convictions of rape and aggravated malicious wounding of his then-seven-year-old daughter, in violation of Code §§ 18.2-61, 18.2-51.2. Ruff contends that the trial court failed to provide him with contemporaneous communication with his attorney during the closed-circuit testimony of his daughter. Finding no error, we affirm Ruff's convictions.
