Coy v. State






IN THE

TENTH COURT OF APPEALS


No. 10-93-062-CR


     DONNELL EARL COY,

                                                                                              Appellant

     v.


     THE STATE OF TEXAS,

                                                                                              Appellee


From the 13th District Court

Navarro County, Texas

Trial Court # 24,881

      A jury convicted Donnell Coy of robbery and assessed punishment of sixty years' imprisonment. See Tex. Penal Code Ann. § 29.02 (Vernon 1989). In one point of error, he claims the evidence is insufficient to support a conclusion that he placed his victim in fear of imminent bodily injury. We will affirm.

      The offense occurred in a Corsicana convenience store and was recorded on the store's surveillance camera. The jury viewed the videotape of the incident after it was introduced into evidence by the State. However, the videotape is not included in the record before this court. Neither is Coy's designation of the record on appeal before us. "[A] defendant who wishes to raise a sufficiency issue on appeal has the burden of ensuring that the entire record of the trial before the fact finder is before the appellate court . . . . " O'Neal v. State, 826 S.W.2d 172, 173 (Tex. Crim. App. 1992). Without the videotape, we are unable to determine the merits of Coy's insufficient-evidence argument. See id.; see also Hall v. State, 829 S.W.2d 407, 411 (Tex. App.—Waco 1992, no pet.). Therefore, we overrule his sole point of error and affirm the judgment of the court.
