    STATE of Louisiana v. Henry A. HAYES and Ronald E. Freeman.
    No. 52821.
    Nov. 28, 1972.
    
      Murphy W. Bell, Baton Rouge, for defendants-appellants.
    William J. Guste, Jr., Atty. Gen., Harry H. Howard, Asst. Atty. Gen., Sargent Pitcher, Jr., Dist. Atty., Alton T. Moran, Asst. Dist. Atty., for plaintiff-appellee.
   PER CURIAM.

Defendants, Ronald E. Freeman and Henry A. Hayes, were tried by a jury and found guilty of the crime of simple burglary, La.R.S. 14:62, for which they each received the sentence of three years in the State Penitentiary. On this appeal, the defendants rely on a single bill of exceptions taken to the trial court’s overruling a motion for a directed verdict to obtain a reversal of their convictions and sentences.

We have held that our State Constitution prevents consideration of such a motion for a directed verdict. La.Const. Art. 19, Sec. 9; State v. Williams, 258 La. 801, 248 So.2d 295 (1971). We find no error.

The convictions and sentences are affirmed.
