OPINION

Christopher Lee White was convicted as a party to capital murder. His punishment was set by the trial court at confinement for life.

White raises four main points on appeal in which he alleges that (1) the record is fatally incomplete, (2) the trial court erred in instructing the jury on the use of notes taken during the trial, (3) the trial court erred in excluding an out-of-court statement made by the principal defendant to a third party, and (4) the evidence is legally and factually insufficient to support the verdict. We overrule all these contentions and affirm the judgment.
