OPINION

NYE, Chief Justice.

In a joint trial, appellants were convicted of attempted murder. Punishment was assessed at eight years' confinement for each defendant. Appellants do not challenge the sufficiency of the evidence. In their sole ground of error, appellants allege error in the failure of the trial court to grant their timely motion for a mistrial after the prosecution allegedly argued outside the record.
