1Opinion of the Court

HINES, Justice.

Paul Treadwell appeals his convictions for felony murder and robbery in connection with the fatal assault upon Joel Sellers. Treadwell challenges testimony by State’s witnesses regarding statements by the victim; testimony by the medical examiner about the cause of the victim’s death; the admission into evidence of the death certificate; the admission into evidence of Treadwell’s prior conviction for voluntary manslaughter; and the sufficiency of the evidence of his guilt.
