No. 20130154

Per Curiam.

Matter of Muscha
[¶1] Cruz Timothy Muscha appealed from an order civilly committing him to the North Dakota State Hospital as a sexually dangerous individual under N.D.C.C. ch. 25-03.3. The only issue Muscha raises on appeal is that the district court abused its discretion in allowing the introduction of, and partly basing its decision upon, evidence about his Static 99-R and MnSOST-R actuarial risk assessment scores. Because we conclude the court did not abuse its discretion, we summarily affirm the order under N.D.R.App.P. 35.1(a)(4).
