Description
GEORGE T. ELLIS, Justice O P I N I O N Appellant, David Bernard Booker, appeals from two judgments of conviction for the felony offenses of aggravated robbery enhanced by a prior felony conviction. A two-count indictment accused appellant of the aggravated robbery of Betty and Sidney Rinkoff. Each count included an enhancement paragraph alleging a prior felony conviction. Appellant entered pleas of not guilty. The jury found appellant guilty of both counts and, finding the enhancement paragraphs of the indictment true, sentenced him to sixty years confinement in the Texas Department of Corrections on each count. We affirm. Appellant brings four grounds of error on appeal. In the first ground of error appellant asserts that there was insufficient evidence to support the verdict that the knife in question was capable of causing serious bodily injury or death. In his second ground of error appellant asserts that the written charge to the jury contains fundamental error in that it failed to charge on an essential element of aggravated robbery, thereby depriving him of his right to a fair trial. In his third ground of error appellant asserts that the conviction must be set aside because of prejudicial argument by the prosecutor improperly urging the jury to cumulate the sentences. In his fourth ground of error appellant asserts that the trial court was without jurisdiction to impose judgments of conviction under both counts of the indictment.
