Marfil v. State
Annotate this CaseAfter a jury trial, Defendant was convicted of two counts of second degree sexual abuse of a minor. Defendant appealed, arguing that the district court erred by refusing his proffered instruction defining the term “inflicts” as used in the charged statute and that the district court erred by refusing to give a definition after the jury requested a dictionary. The Supreme Court affirmed, holding that the district court did not err in refusing Defendant’s proposed instruction or in failing to provide the jury with Defendant’s proffered definition of the term “inflicts” in response to the jury’s request for a dictionary.
