    AFFIRMED.

      

    Per Curiam.

      

    Lloyd C. Suhr, Assistant State’s Attorney, 514 E. Thayer Ave., Bismarck, N.D. 58501, for petitioner and appellee; submitted on brief.

      

    Steven M. Light, 300 NP Avenue, #201, Fargo, N.D. 58102, for respondent  and appellant; submitted on brief.

    Matter of J.M.

    No. 20100398

      

    Per Curiam.

    [¶1] J.M. appeals from a trial court order denying his petition for discharge and continuing his commitment as a sexually dangerous individual.  He argues the State did not prove by clear and convincing evidence he has serious difficulty controlling his behavior and remains a sexually dangerous individual.  We conclude the trial court did not clearly err in denying J.M.’s petition for discharge and affirm the trial court’s order under N.D.R.App.P. 35.1(a)(2).
