OPINION

LAGARDE, Justice.

Simpson Lane was convicted of the offense of unlawful possession of a firearm by a felon. Punishment, enhanced by two prior convictions, was assessed at thirty years’ confinement. Appellant raises two points of error on appeal, claiming that the evidence was insufficient to show that he had previously been convicted of a felony involving an act of violence, and second, that there was a fatal variance between the proof and the allegations in the indictment. We overrule appellant’s points of error and affirm the judgment of the trial court.
