OPINION
ONION, Presiding Judge.
This appeal arises out of a murder conviction where the punishment was assessed at 25 years.
The sufficiency of the evidence is not challenged and we do not deem a recitation of the facts necessary to the proper disposition of this appeal.
Initially, the appellant complains the trial court erred in allowing him to appear and be tried in jail clothing. Our attention is directed only to an allegation in a handwritten pro-se motion in arrest of judgment. The allegations in such motion are not self-proving and we have found nothing in the record to support the claim.
