1Opinion of the Court

HUNTER, Justice.

Defendant, Richard L. Myers, was convicted of robbery, a Class B felony, Ind.Code § 35-42-5-1 (Burns 1979 Repl.) and was sentenced to twenty years' imprisonment. In his direct appeal, he raises the following three issues:

1. Whether the trial court erred in admitting into evidence various items seized from defendant's motel room during a war-rantless search;

2. Whether the trial court erred in refusing to give defendant's instruction on a lesser included offense; and

8. Whether the trial court abused its discretion by enhancing defendant's sentence.
