   U.S. Court of Appeals Case No:  12-2175
   U.S. District Court for the District of North Dakota - Bismarck   
   [PUBLISHED] [Benton, Author, with Smith and Melloy, Circuit Judges]
   Criminal Case - conviction. District court properly denied Rule 29
   motion for judgment of acquittal, as sufficient evidence was presented to
   support jury verdict for attempting transportation of a minor with intent to
   engage in sexual activity under 18 USC 2423(a), evidence supported that
   defendant acted with intent to engage in sexual activity for which any
   person could be charged with a criminal offense, and defendant could
   have been charged under North Dakota law. Although insufficient
   evidence was presented to support an intent to create pornography,
   alternative jury instruction supports conviction. District court did not
   plainly err in submitting entire statute, even though only part applied to
   defendant.
