After a joint trial, defendant and his codefendant, Joyce Johnson, were fоund guilty by a district court jury of charges of aggravated robbery and aggravated assault (inflicting great bodily harm), Minn.St. 609.245 and 609.225, subd. 1. Defendant was sentenced by the trial cоurt to a term of 3 to 20 years in the state prison on the robbery conviction, § 609.245 and 609.11. On this appeal from judgment of conviction defendant contends that there was legally insufficient evidence of this guilt, that the prosecutor committed prejudicial misconduct in his closing argument, and that his sentence tо a minimum term of 3 years should be voided because the statute authorizing it, § 609.11, is constitutionally defective because it vests the prosecutor with unlimited discretion in deciding whether to invoke it. 1 We affirm.

There is no merit to either of the first two issues. Our disposition of the third issue is controlled by the recent decision of the United States Supreme Court in
Bordenkircher v. Hayes,
“ * * * In our systеm, so long as the prosecutor has probable cause to believe that the accused committed an offense defined by statute, the decision whether or not to prosecute, and what charge to file or bring before a grand jury, generally rests entirely in his discretion. Within the limits set by the legislature’s constitutionally valid definition of chargeable offenses, ‘the conscious exercise of some selectivity in enforcement is not in itself a federal constitutional violation’ so long as ‘the selection was [not] deliberately based upon an unjustifiable standard such as race, religion, or other arbitrary classification.’ Oyler v. Boles,368 U.S. 448 , 456,82 S.Ct. 501 , 506,7 L.Ed.2d 446 .”434 U.S. 364 ,98 S.Ct. 668 ,54 L.Ed.2d 611 .
There is no claim or showing in this case of discrimination in enforcement on the basis of some unjustifiable standard.
Affirmed.
