1Opinion of the Court

Eldridge, Judge.

A McDuffie County jury found Mark Victor Walton guilty of armed robbery, kidnapping, and possession of a knife during the commission of a felony for acts he perpetrated against the night clerk of Fast Fare Convenience Store on Augusta Highway in Thomson. Walton contends on appeal that the trial court erred in denying his motion for continuance and that the evidence was insufficient to support the verdict. After reviewing the record, we reject these contentions and affirm.

1. Walton claims error in the trial court’s denial of his motion for continuance. We do not agree.
