                                MEMORANDUM OPINION^[1]

                                              ------------

Brenda Lee Villa appeals her sentence for robbery by threats.  In a single point, appellant complains that the trial court improperly denied her motion for new trial because her sentence is excessive.  We affirm.

Appellant did not object to her sentence when it was imposed.  Although her motion for new trial complains that the sentence is excessive and disproportionate to her conduct, she did not present the motion to the trial court.  Accordingly, appellant has forfeited her complaint on appeal.^[2]  We overrule appellant=s point and affirm the trial court=s judgment.
