Opinion:
MORRIS, Judge.
This is another appeal at State's expense by an indigent defendant after a plea of guilty. His plea was accepted by the State only after due inquiry and proper adjudication by the court that it was freely and voluntarily made. The transcript of his plea and the court's adjudication appear of record. The sentences imposed were within the statutory limit.
Affirmed.
Judges Campbell and Britt concur.
