Missouri Court of Appeals, Western District / Sep 3, 2019
State of Missouri vs. Brian T. Lewis
Brian T. Lewis appealed his conviction for two counts of incest, challenging the sufficiency of the evidence to prove paternity and a discrepancy between his oral and written sentences. The appellate court affirmed the convictions, finding sufficient evidence to establish paternity through various forms of testimony and judicial admissions. However, the court remanded the case to the trial court with directions to correct the written judgment to accurately reflect the orally pronounced sentence.
