Robert William Emerick, 34, formerly of Anaconda, pleaded to a felony count of sexual assault, victim less than 16 years old. 

He is being held in the Lincoln County Detention Center on $100,000 bail. Emerick must undergo a psycho-sexual evaluation before he is sentenced. County attorney Marcia Boris said she anticipated that would take 30 to 60 days.
