Before HALL, MARVIN and NORRIS, JJ.


MARVIN, Judge.

Ira Loyd appeals his conviction of manslaughter by unanimous jury verdict after being indicted for 2d degree murder. Defendant's first six assignments relate to rulings made during trial. His seventh assignment contends that his sentence to 30 years at hard labor, as an habitual offender under LRS 15:529.1, was constitutionally excessive. We affirm the conviction and the sentence.
