Description
The defendant, Paul Hart, appeals his conviction in the Larimer County district court for assault on a police officer, contending that the lack of a culpable mental state in section 18-3-203(1)(f), C.R.S. 1973 (1978 Repl. Vol. 8) (1982 Supp.) and the courts failure to instruct the jury on a culpable mental state deprived him of due process. Because the requisite mental state may be implied from the statute and because the instructions which were given meet the test in People v. Mattas, 645 P.2d 254 (Colo. 1982), we affirm the defendants conviction.
