Robert E. Stewart Missouri Cases

Robert Stewart appealed his convictions for unlawful use of a weapon, third-degree domestic assault, first-degree burglary, and armed criminal action, arguing insufficient evidence for the assault and burglary charges. The Missouri Supreme Court affirmed the judgment. The Court held that sufficient evidence supported the domestic assault conviction, finding the jury was not obligated to credit the victim's testimony regarding lack of apprehension. It also found sufficient evidence for the burglary conviction, as Stewart's property interest did not preclude him from unlawfully remaining on the premises after his ex-wife revoked his permission.
