BENHAM, Judge.
Appellant was convicted of robbery and now appeals, asserting the general grounds. We affirm. The victim identified appellant as the man who snatched her purse from her as she exited a Columbus cafe. A witness to the robbery also identified appellant as the purse snatcher. A police detective testified that he prepared a seven-picture photo display from which the victim chose appellant's photograph as one depicting the man who had robbed her. There was sufficient evidence for a rational trier of fact to find appellant guilty of robbery beyond a reasonable doubt. Jackson v. Virginia, 443 U.S. 307 (99 SC 2781, 61 L.Ed.2d 560) (1979); OCGA § 16-8-40.
Appellant points out that OCGA § 5-5-21 authorizes a trial court to grant a new trial where the verdict may be against the weight of the evidence. "This, however, must be addressed to the trial judge . . . The law gives to him alone the authority to grant a new trial for such a reason. This court has no such power." Josey v. State, 197 Ga. 82, 93 ( 28 S.E.2d 290) (1943).
Judgment affirmed. Banke, C. J., and Pope, J., concur.
DECIDED JANUARY 31, 1985.
