Syllabus

Appellant's conviction for domestic violence was not against the manifest weight of the evidence where the state demonstrated appellant knowingly caused physical harm to his teenage daughter when he punched her in the face with a closed fist. Furthermore, the finder of fact was entitled to conclude that a closed fist punch to the face was not proper and reasonable parental discipline.
