State v. Mayer

[¶1] Gregory George Mayer appeals from a criminal conviction entered after a jury found him guilty of aggravated assault.  Mayer argues the district court erred in denying his motion for judgment of acquittal because the State failed to present sufficient evidence to establish the identity of the victim; insufficient evidence existed to establish the victim suffered serious bodily injury; and the State failed to prove beyond a reasonable doubt that he was not acting in self-defense.  We conclude sufficient evidence supports the jury verdict, and we affirm under N.D.R.App.P. 35.1(a)(3).
