STATE v. SCOTT (2021)

Missouri Court of Appeals, Western District.

STATE of Missouri, Respondent, v. Christopher Aaron SCOTT, Appellant.

WD 84159

Decided: December 28, 2021

Before Division Four: Cynthia L. Martin, C.J., Lisa White Hardwick, and Thomas N. Chapman, JJ.

James Egan, Columbia, MO, Counsel for Appellant. Kristen Johnson, Jefferson City, MO, Counsel for Respondent. Richard Starnes, Jefferson City, MO, Co-Counsel for Respondent.

ORDER

Christopher Scott appeals his convictions, following a jury trial, for robbery in the first degree, armed criminal action, and unlawful use of a weapon. In two points on appeal, he contends that the trial court plainly erred in submitting the verdict directing instruction for unlawful use of a weapon. Because a published opinion would have no precedential value, a memorandum explaining the reasons of this decision is provided to the parties. The convictions are affirmed. Rule 30.25(b).
