Undercofler, Justice.

Joseph Arthur Allen was convicted of the murder of Ronald F. Webb and sentenced to life imprisonment. He appeals from that judgment. Held:

1. We have carefully reviewed the evidence presented in this case and find it is sufficient to support the verdict.

2. The appellant contends in his brief that the trial court erred in considering other matters foreign to the case on trial while on the bench and presiding over this trial. He argues that the trial court signed one order which he presented and other orders during the three-day trial.
