On appeal, Duncan argued the trial court committed plain error by failing to sua sponte find a double jeopardy violation for two of the child abuse charges. The appellate court affirmed the trial court's judgment, concluding that the record established separate offenses based on different methods of force and opportunities for Duncan to reconsider his actions, thus no double jeopardy violation was apparent.","primaryTopic":"criminal-procedure","topicSlugs":["criminal-procedure","appellate-procedure","standard-of-review","other"],"outcomeNorm":"mixed","officialSourceUrl":"https://www.courts.mo.gov/file.jsp?id=221494","detailUrl":"https://ott.law/missouri-courts/opinions/state-of-missouri-v-shane-a-duncan-d86820","relatedPracticeAreas":[{"slug":"criminal-law","label":"Criminal Law","href":"/practice-areas/criminal-law","score":32,"source":"tag","evidence":["tag: criminal-law","topic: criminal-procedure"],"url":"https://ott.law/practice-areas/criminal-law"},{"slug":"litigation","label":"Civil Litigation","href":"/practice-areas/litigation","score":12,"source":"topic","evidence":["topic: appellate-procedure"],"url":"https://ott.law/practice-areas/litigation"}],"role":"respondent"}]}
