ORDER

PER CURIAM.

Blake Shelton appeals the judgment entered upon a jury's verdict convicting him of one count of first-degree robbery. We find that the trial court did not abuse its discretion in its decisions to admit and exclude certain evidence at trial, and the trial court did not plainly err in allowing certain closing argument by the prosecutor.

An extended opinion would have no precedential value. We have, however, provided the parties a memorandum setting forth the reasons for our decision. The judgment of the trial court is affirmed under Rule 30.25(b).
