STATE v. LEWIS (2020)

Missouri Court of Appeals, Western District.

STATE of Missouri, Respondent, v. Justin Keith LEWIS, Appellant.

WD 82927

Decided: November 03, 2020

Before Division Four: Cynthia L. Martin, C.J., and Alok Ahuja and Thomas N. Chapman, JJ.

Austin J. Knoblock, Joplin, Ellen H. Flottman, Columbia, for appellant. Robert J. Bartholomew, Jr., Jefferson City for respondent.

ORDER

Following a jury trial, Justin Keith Lewis was convicted in the Circuit Court of Pettis County of second-degree murder, armed criminal action, and unlawful use of a weapon. Lewis appeals. He challenges the sufficiency of the evidence to support his conviction for unlawful use of a weapon under § 571.030.1(4), RSMo 2016. Lewis argues that the evidence was insufficient to prove that he exhibited a weapon, or that he did so in an angry or threatening manner. We affirm. Because a published opinion would have no precedential value, we have provided an unpublished memorandum to the parties which sets forth the reasons for this order. Rule 30.25(b)
