Hunt, Chief Justice.

Robert Lewis Cost, Jr. was convicted of the malice and felony murder of Donald Baldwin and sentenced to life imprisonment.1 He appeals and we affirm.

1. Having reviewed the evidence in the light most favorable to the jury’s determination, we conclude that a rational trier of fact could have found the defendant guilty of the crimes for which he was convicted beyond a reasonable doubt. Jackson v. Virginia, 443 U. S. 307 (99 SC 2781, 61 LE2d 560) (1979).

2. We find no error requiring reversal in the defendant’s remaining enumerations.

Judgment affirmed.

All the Justices concur.
