OPINION

Martha Hill Jamison, Justice

Appellant Ryan Jusup Simon appeals his conviction for capital murder. After a jury found appellant guilty, the trial court sentenced him to life in prison without the possibility of parole. In a single issue, appellant cbmplains that the record does not reflect that the senior district judge sitting by assignment took the required oaths of office. Because we presume the regularity of such assignments and the record does not reflect that the trial judge failed to take the required oaths, we affirm.
