OPINION

NAJAM, Judge.

STATEMENT OF THE CASE

Robert Richardson, II was convicted of Robbery, as a Class C felony, and Battery, as a Class A misdemeanor. He received an enhanced sentence of eight years for the robbery conviction and the maximum sentence of one year for the battery conviction. The trial court ordered the sentences to be served consecutively for a total term of nine years. The sole issue presented for review is whether Richardson’s convictions for both robbery and battery violate the double jeopardy clause of the Indiana Constitution.

We affirm.
