Missouri Court of Appeals, Western District.

STATE of Missouri, Respondent, v. Manuel HERNANDEZ-MONTESINO, Appellant.

WD 80946

Decided: August 20, 2019

Before Division One: Victor C. Howard, Presiding Judge, Lisa White Hardwick and Gary D. Witt, Judges

Heath A. Stuart, Leawood, KS for appellant. Robert J. Barthjolomew, Jr., Jefferson City for respondent.

Order

Following a jury trial, Manuel Hernandez-Montesino appeals from his conviction on one count of second-degree domestic assault. He contends the circuit court erred in prohibiting defense counsel from making comments during closing arguments about the State’s failure to present certain evidence at trial. For reasons explained in a Memorandum provided to the parties, we find no error and affirm the judgment of conviction. Rule 30.25(b).
