BROWN, J.
The defendant was found guilty, after a jury trial in the Superior Court, of rape, kidnapping, and assault and battery. In 1977, the defendant filed a claim of appeal pursuant to G.L.c. 278, §§ 33A-33G. A motion for new trial was filed on October 3, 1980, and was denied. The defendant now appeals from the rape conviction, the others having been placed on file, and the denial of his motion for a new trial.
