Interest of TannerNo. 20120084

Per Curiam.

[¶1] Kelly Tanner appealed from a district court order civilly committing him as a sexually dangerous individual. On appeal, Tanner argues the State failed to prove by clear and convincing evidence that he was likely to engage in further acts of sexually predatory conduct and that he has serious difficulty controlling his behavior. We affirm under N.D.R.App.P. 35.1(a)(2).
