Opinion:
PER CURIAM.
The' defendant was convicted after a trial by jury of armed robbery, a violation of R.S. 14:64, and was sentenced to thirty years imprisonment without benefit of parole, probation or suspension of sentence. Upon this appeal the defendant relies on thirteen assignments of error for a reversal of his conviction and sentence. We find no merit in the assignments of error.
Accordingly, we affirm the defendant's conviction and sentence.
AFFIRMED.
SUMMERS, J., concurs.
