After a jury trial, Jermario Jackson was convicted of three counts of armed robbery, one count of aggravated battery and one count of possession of a firearm during the commission of a felony. Because there was sufficient evidence to support the convictions and his trial counsel was not ineffective, we affirm. Construed to support the jury’s verdict, Jackson v. Virginia , 443 U. S. 307 99 SC 2781, 61 LE2d 560 1979, the evidence shows that on September 29, 2005, Jackson and Marcus Monger entered a T-Mobile store. Using handguns, the men forced three victims, Irfan Maya, Emran Maya and Rizwan Haider, to move to the back of the store and get on the floor. Jackson began beating, kicking and stomping on the head of one of the victims, Irfan Maya. Maya lost consciousness and the other two victims were forced into a bathroom. Jackson and Monger subsequently left the store with the cash register, phones and other personal property of the victims.

1. Jackson challenges his conviction for the aggravated battery of Irfan Maya on the ground that there is insufficient evidence that Maya’s skull and brain were rendered useless. As to his skull, Jackson’s challenge is misplaced. The trial court, with the consent of Jackson, expressly removed that issue from the jury’s consideration.
