1Opinion of the Court

WATHEN, Chief Justice.

Defendant Jessie Osborne appeals from a judgment of conviction entered in the Superior Court (Cumberland County, Lipez J.) after a nonjury trial in which he was found guilty of eight counts of unlawful sexual contact, 17-A M.R.S.A. § 255(1)(C) (Supp.1992).1 He contends that the trial court erroneously admitted certain evidence, that it impermissibly shifted the burden of proof, that his due process rights were violated, and that the evidence was insufficient to convict him on Counts III and IV. Finding no merit in any of these contentions, we affirm the judgment.
