State v. Phillips

OPINION

BIRCH, Justice.

In this cause, we granted review in order to determine whether the imposition of three convictions for sexual conduct occurring during a “single” criminal episode violates constitutional provisions against double jeopardy.

Accordingly, the judgment of the Court of Criminal Appeals upholding the convictions is affirmed.
