State v. Brown

HEDRICK, Judge.

Defendant, by his two assignments of error, contends that the evidence was not sufficient to allow submission of the case to the jury or to support the jury’s verdict on the issue of *195paternity and that the court erred in its instructions as to the issue of paternity. Defendant argues that the State failed to offer evidence that the child, Jason Lee Matthews, was “illegitimate,” and that the court erred in not instructing the jury that it must find that the child was “illegitimate” before it could answer the issue of paternity as to defendant.

Defendant cites nothing in support…
