Opinion of the Court

This opinion does not serve as binding precedent under
NMCCA Rule of Appellate Procedure 30.2(a).

PER CURIAM: After careful consideration of the record, submitted without assignment of error, we have determined that the findings and sentence are correct in law and fact and that no error materially prejudicial to Appellant’s substantial rights occurred. 1 However, we note that the Statement of Trial Results [SOTR] incorrectly states that Appellant’s conviction is not a crime of domestic violence as defined in Dep’t of Def. Instr. 6400.06, Domestic Abuse Involving DoD Mili- tary and Certain Affiliated Personnel, encl. 2 (Ch. 4, May 26, 2017) [DoDI 6400.06] and does not trigger the prohibition against possessing a firearm in accordance with 18 U.S.C. § 922. Appellant was convicted of child endanger- ment by culpable negligence resulting in harm, in violation of Article 119b, Uniform Code of Military Justice, 2 for shaking and squeezing the torso of his two-month-old son, resulting in three rib fractures, two clavicle fractures, and bilateral, subconjunctival hemorrhage of the eyes. This is a crime of domestic violence, which triggers the prohibition against firearm possession. 3 Accord- ingly, we order correction of the SOTR to reflect the same. The findings and sentence are AFFIRMED.
