Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

C. Paul Jones, Public Defender, Lawrence Hammerling, Asst. State Public Defender, Minneapolis, for appellant.

Hubert H. Humphrey, III, Atty. Gen., Thomas J. Foley, Ramsey County Atty., Steven C. DeCoster, Asst. County Atty., St. Paul, for respondent.

Considered and decided by POPOVICH, C.J., and PARKER and CRIPPEN, JJ., with oral argument waived.


OPINION

POPOVICH, Chief Judge.

This is an appeal from a post-conviction order denying modification of appellant's sentence. Appellant was given consecutive sentences for his convictions of first degree manslaughter, Minn.Stat. § 609.20 (Supp. 1981), and aggravated robbery, Minn.Stat. § 609.245 (1980). Appellant asserts that the trial court abused its discretion by ordering consecutive rather than concurrent sentences. We disagree and affirm.
