WD 87498

Decided: December 30, 2025

Before Division One: Janet Sutton, Presiding Judge, Gary D. Witt, Judge and W. Douglas Thomson, Judge

Roger W. Johnson, Columbia, MO, for Respondent. Cameron Shields, Columbia, MO, Co-Counsel for Respondent. Craig A. Johnston, Columbia, MO, Co-Counsel for Respondent. Christian Lehmberg, Columbia, MO, for Appellant.

ORDER

Gregory Todd Martin (“Martin”) appeals from his conviction and sentence entered by the trial court after a jury found Martin guilty of domestic assault in the fourth degree, pursuant to section 565.076. Martin raises one Point on Appeal, claiming the trial court clearly erred in overruling his Batson ¹ challenge to the State's peremptory strike of Venireperson 28. We affirm. Because a published opinion would have no precedential value, we have provided an unpublished memorandum which sets forth the reasons for this order. Rule 30.25(b).
