1Opinion of the Court

OPINION OF THE COURT BY

KOBAYASHI, J.

Don Laurie (appellant) was found guilty by a third circuit jury of attempted rape in the first degree, a class A felony, and of attempted assault in the first degree, a class B felony. He appeals these convictions contending (1) that the trial judge improperly denied his motion for judgment of acquittal on the attempted rape in the first degree charge; (2) that the trial judge failed to respond adequately to a question submitted by the jury during deliberation; and (3) that the evidence was legally insufficient to support the guilty verdicts. We affirm.
