    No. ED 80375.
    Missouri Court of Appeals, Eastern District, Division Two.
    Sept. 24, 2002.
    Douglas R. Hoff, Assistant Public Defender, St. Louis, MO, for Appellant.
    Jeremiah W. (Jay) Nixon, Atty. Gen., Anne E. Edgington, Assistant Attorney General, Jefferson City, MO, for Respondent.
    Before PAUL J. SIMON, P.J., GARY M. GAERTNER, SR., J. and KATHIANNE KNAUP CRANE, J.
   ORDER

PER CURIAM.

Appellant, Deborah Sicking (“defendant”), appeals the judgment of the Circuit Court of the City of St. Louis, following a jury trial, finding her guilty of voluntary manslaughter, section 565.023, RSMo 2000, and armed criminal action, section 571.015. Defendant was sentenced as a prior and persistent offender to two concurrent terms of ten years imprisonment. We affirm.

We have reviewed the briefs of the parties and the record on appeal. As an extended opinion would serve no jurisprudential purpose, we affirm the judgment pursuant to Rule 30.25(b). We have, however, provided a memorandum opinion for the use of the parties only setting forth the reasons for our decision. 
      
      . All statutory references are to RSMo 2000, unless otherwise indicated.
