                                No. 20220164

Per Curiam.

[¶1] Eldrey Marchone Lane appeals from a criminal judgment entered after
a jury convicted him of driving under suspension. Lane argues the evidence
presented at trial was insufficient to support the jury’s verdict. Viewing the
evidence in the light most favorable to the verdict, we conclude sufficient
evidence exists that could allow a jury to draw a reasonable inference in favor
of conviction. We summarily affirm under N.D.R.App.P. 35.1(a)(3).
