APPEAL BOOK ENDORSEMENT

[1]

We see no merit in this appeal.  The trial judge thoroughly reviewed the
    principles relating to admissibility of the 911 recordings and the
    complainants signed statement to police as recorded in the investigating
    officers notebook under the principled exception to the hearsay rule.  The
    appellant has demonstrated no error in the trial judges admissibility ruling.

[2]

Moreover, we reject the appellants argument that the statements are
    entitled to little or no weight at the trial.  The appellants arguments in
    this regard were considered and rejected by the trial judge.  We see no error
    in her conclusion.

[3]

The appeal is dismissed.
