1Opinion of the CourtCourtney Hudson Goodson, Associate Justice
LA jury in the Pulaski County Circuit Court found appellant Andrew M. Holland guilty of sexual assault in the first degree and sexual assault in The second degree. Respectively, he received concurrent terms of forty and thirty years in prison. For reversal, Holland contends that the circuit court erred by (1) permitting the introduction of evidence under the “pedophile exception”; (2) by not allowing evidence of the victims’ motives to falsely accuse him of the crimes; and (3) by denying him access to one of the victim’s psychological records. We affirm on all issues.
