  • DOUCET, Judge.

    Defendant, Jerry J. Jones, was charged by bill of information with two counts of forgery, a violation of La.R.S. 14:72. After trial he was found guilty on both counts and sentenced to four years imprisonment *981at hard labor on each count, sentences to run concurrently. Defendant appeals.

    Accordingly, the convictions and sentences are affirmed.

    AFFIRMED.
