1Opinion of the Court

HUMPHREYS, Judge.

Dennis Barson (“Barson”) was convicted in the Circuit Court of the City of Virginia Beach (“trial court”) on one count of harassment by computer, in violation of Code § 18.2-152.7:!.1 Barson contends on appeal that the evidence presented at trial was insufficient as a matter of law to support his conviction. A divided panel of this Court agreed with Barson and reversed his conviction. See Barson v. Commonwealth, No. 2464-09-1, 2010 WL 4284631 (Va.Ct.App. Nov. 2, 2010). We granted the Commonwealth’s petition for rehearing en banc and stayed the mandate of the panel decision.2…
