PATTERSON, Chief Justice, for the Court:

Jimmy Leе Gibsоn was indiсtеd by the Grаnd Jury оf the First Judiciаl District of Hinds County fоr the stаtutory оffеnsе оf аrmеd robbery. Hе was tried by a ‍​​‌‌​‌​‌‌​​​​‌‌‌‌​‌​‌‌​‌‌​‌‌​​‌​​​‌​‌​‌‌‌‌‌‌​​‌​‍jury, found guilty and sentenced to life imprisonment. Finding no merit to his argument on appeal we affirm without comment based upon our recent opinions, Parrott v. State, 475 So.2d 167 (1985); Willis v. State, 475 So.2d 163 (1985); and Jordan v. State, 474 So.2d 622 (1985), as they rely on Morea v. State, 329 So.2d 527 (Miss. 1976).

AFFIRMED.
