Order
PER CURIAM:
Michael Simpson appeals his conviction for the class B misdemeanor of driving while intoxicated, section 577.010. Simpson argues that the trial court plainly erred in overruling his objection to a statement made by the prosecutor during closing argument in that the statement constituted an impermissible comment on Simpson's decision not to testify and misstated the evidence. We affirm. Rule 30.25(b).
