MEMORANDUM OPINION

VANZI, Judge.

Appellant’s Motion for Rehearing is granted. The memorandum opinion filed in this case on February 15, 2012, is hereby withdrawn, and this opinion is substituted in its place.

Summary affirmance was proposed for the reasons stated in the notice of proposed disposition. The State has informed us that it does not oppose the proposed result, although it has also asked us to provide clarification on a single point. As requested, we clarify that we do not decide what effect, if any, the trial court’s order has on the alleged victim’s right to freely testify in any future proceeding.

AFFIRMED.

IT IS SO ORDERED.

LINDA M. VANZI, Judge
