1Opinion of the Court

GUNN, Judge.

Defendant was convicted of two counts of first degree robbery and one count of assault first degree. His appeal raises the following alleged trial court errors: (1) refusal to allow his attorney to confer with him outside the jury’s presence as to whether he should take the witness stand; (2) failing to declare a mistrial after the jury had an opportunity to see his mug shot laying in view on the counsel’s table; (3) refusing to sever the assault and robbery *111counts; (4) failing to find that the verdict was not supported by substantial evidence.

We affirm.
