BOWEN, Presiding Judge.
Cecil Eugene Bates was indicted and convicted for robbery in the first degree. He was sentenced to ninety-nine years' imprisonment as a habitual offender.
Bates' conviction stems from the robbery of a Parade Service Station on April 27, 1983, in which Keith Hicks was the actual robber and Bates drove the "get-away car". This appeal is from Bates' second trial. His first trial was declared a mistrial because of a deadlocked jury.
