YELVERTON, Judge.

Defendant, Clarence Lawrence, Jr., charged with the crime of attempted aggravated rape (La.R.S. 14:27 and 14:42), was convicted by a jury and sentenced by the court to 21 years at hard labor; he appeals this conviction.

Thibodeaux, 448 So.2d 879 (La.App. 3rd Cir. 1984). We have reviewed the record and find no error.

Accordingly, the conviction and sentence are affirmed.
